SCOTTISH rockers Biffy Clyro will show the Euros match between Northern Ireland and Wales at their concert tonight in Belfast.

The band have adjusted the set times of their Belsonic show at Titanic Belfast so that fans can see both the gig and the football match.

Doors will open at the earlier time of 4.30pm and the game will be shown on the big screen for ticket holders only ahead of the concert.

The Belsonic stage had previously been used to allow thousands of Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland fans to watch their group stage games on the big screen.

But their weekend matches will now be shown at Boucher Road playing fields because of the scheduled Belsonic gigs.

Gates to the fanzone will open at 3pm today for Northern Ireland's game and noon tomorrow for the Republic's match against France.

Entry will remain free on a first come first served basis.

There is no parking at the site, but a free shuttle bus service will operate.

It will run between Donegall Square East and Boucher Road every fifteen minutes between 2pm and 8pm today and tomorrow from noon to 6pm.

A bar and catering facilities will operate on site. No alcohol will be allowed onto the site.
