Rangers and Celtic fans allowed 'late entry' to rave festival on Ayr beach

Ravers heading to Ayr beach on Sunday have been given the go ahead to arrive later with the major festival clashing with the Scottish Cup semis.

STREETrave is set to take over the Low Green this weekend as part of a two-day festival.

The Sunday will see the likes of Inner City, Soul II Soul, Utah Saints and Roger Sanchez take to the stage.

But the festival, 30 years in the making, has been drawn on the same day as a huge Scottish Cup semi-final clash between Rangers and Celtic at Hampden.

The Old Firm showdown will see the arch rivals face off for the last silverware of the season.

And festival organisers are giving football fans the best of both worlds by granting them a later entry.

The crunch tie is set to kick off in the south side of Glasgow at 1.30pm. The initial curfew for last entry at the festival was 5pm but that has been extended to no later than 6pm.

Organisers hinted the reason for the curfew being extended was due to a "certain sporting fixture".

Meanwhile the last batch of tickets are still available for the STREETrave festival, with organisers confirming they had sold 4,500 of their 5,000 capacity.
