Since early June we’ve been in cahoots with our bro’s at JOE.ie brewing up something special. Our joint five part documentary series How The YES Was Won has been getting a huge reaction all week and it’s been an absolute pleasure to reflect on the success of the Marriage Referendum. We’ve chatted to the heavy weights of the campaign including Una Mullally, Senator Katherine Zappone and Anne Louise Gilligan, Joe Caslin and Rory O’Neill. But it doesn’t end there! We agree with our bros who think it’s time for a celebration. We’re delighted now to be supporting JOE.ie presents How The YES Was Won live at Electric Picnic.

Join us as we welcome Una Mullally, Joe Caslin, Aodhan O’Riordan, Lisa Connell, Patrick Sweeney and Rory O’Neill to a live panel discussion at Body and Soul this Sunday at 10.30am.
