RTE to screen Late Late Show special on New Year's Eve as details emerge

Patrick Kielty will host the special show on December 31

RTE has announced details of a New Year's Eve Late Late Show special.

The iconic chat show will air on a Sunday for the first time as Patrick Kielty spearheads a special show from 10.15pm on New Year's Eve.

A number of special guests will add to the festive atmosphere as the show rings in 2024 in style on the Donnybrook set. 

Details of the special production were revealed in the RTE Guide released this week.

The description said: "It's the final countdown for 2023, but before we say goodbye to the year that was and welcome in 2024, it's time for Patrick Kielty to host his first end-of-year extravaganza.

"As always, the stars will be out in force, as he chats to a revolving door of special guests.

"That's not all, as we can expect plenty of surprises, familiar faces and a final farewell to the past year."

The show will be taking on the Graham Norton show New Year's special which boasts guests like Emma Stone and Mark Ruffalo this year.

Patrick Kielty will be on air on the show on RTE One from 10.15pm to 11.45pm when he will then handover to Anna Geary for the countdown to the New Year.
