You can now get yourself a T-shirt with the Pope's face on it ahead of his Ireland visit this summer.

Pope Francis will visit for a total of six days in August for the the World Meeting of Families 2018. Half a million tickets for the Papal visit mass in the Phoenix Park have already sold out since going on sale late last month. 45,000 tickets for the Pope's visit to the Knock Shrine in Co Mayo have also been snapped up. If you didn't manage to get tickets and are still hoping to represent on the day, don't worry because T-shirts with Pope Francis's face on them are already available to buy at a bargain price.

Dunnes already have the Papal Visit merch on sale from r/ireland

For just €8, you can pick yourself up a green, white, or gold version of the T-shirt from Dunnes Stores. The garments, which come in all three colours of the Irish flag, feature Pope Francis waving in front of a large white cross with the phrase 'Céad Míle Fáilte' above him. The T-shirts also include the words 'Ireland 2018.' This comes after Dealz announced that they will be selling 'Lollipopes' in the lead up to the Papal visit. "Celebrate the Pope’s visit by proudly displaying Vatican flag bunting at home or even by satisfying those sweet cravings with a tasty Pope lollipop (The Lollipope!), for just €1.50. It’s sure to be a visit to remember so Pope on down to your local Dealz now!" they said. The Dealz "Pope-themed paraphenalia" is now on sale.
