Kathryn Thomas and Rob Kearney to attend RDS Motor Show

TV personality Kathryn Thomas and rugby star Rob Kearney to attend screening of Ireland game at Audi stand.

TV presenter Kathryn Thomas and professional rugby player Rob Kearney are due to attend a special live screening of this Sunday's RBS 6 Nations game against Scotland, at none other than the Audi stand at this weekend's Motor Show in the RDS.

Rob is expected to present a special pre-game Q&A session, which is an addition to the Audi stand so that car enthusiasts won't be sacrificing the event while enjoying the exhibition.

Speaking about Sunday's live screening, Rob, who is currently recovering from a rugby injury, said, "Obviously I'd like to be playing in the game on Sunday but I will be cheering my team mates on at the live screening in the RDS. I'm looking forward to answering any questions people may have at the Q&A session. I would advise anyone coming along to get to the stand early so they can get a good view of the game."

Audi is also presenting two concept cars at both the 'Electric Avenue' and 'Legends Arena' areas of the show. The €1.3 million Audi R8 "e-tron" will be making its Irish debut following its recent showcase in the U.S and Germany. The Audi R8 Spyder will be showcased outside the venue and racing fans will get to see the R15 TDI Le Mans car that last won the 24-hour event.

To keep the kids entertained, special Audi tricycles present little ones the opportunity to have their first driving experience, upon completion which will see them receive their "first driver's licence".
