RTÉ will begin broadcasting Mass on weekdays from tomorrow in response to restrictions placed on public gatherings amid coronavirus concerns. The decision to broadcast Mass is in response to the Government's advice against public gatherings, meaning congregations must not exceed 100 people within the church building. The Mass services will be shown on the RTÉ News Now channel from tomorrow until at least March 29. The broadcast will be followed by a religious message from representatives of Ireland’s other faith communities and Christian denominations. The broadcaster will also celebrate the Sikh festival of Vaisakhi, again at 5.35pm on RTÉ One.
