The route of Shane MacGowan's funeral procession through Dublin has been confirmed.
It will take place this Friday morning around the south inner city, not far from where Mr MacGowan lived in Ballsbridge with his wife Victoria Mary Clarke.
A horse-drawn carriage will be led by the Artane Band and a piper and will travel through Ringsend and Pearse Street from 10.30am to 11.45am.
The procession will begin at the junction of South Lotts Road and Ringsend Road at 10.30am and travel across McMahon Bridge and down Pearse Street to the junction of Lombard Street East and Westland Row.
It will end at the top of Westland Row near Sweny's Pharmacy.
The whole procession is expected to last about an hour and a quarter.
A traffic management plan will be put in place by gardaí with some road closures and traffic held at junctions during the course of the procession.
Following the route around the capital, the hearse and family cars will depart for Nenagh, Co Tipperary.
The funeral mass for Mr McGowan will be celebrated in St Mary of the Rosary Church in Nenagh at 3.30pm.
The Chief Celebrant will be Fr Pat Gilbert, who is the co-parish priest.
It is open to the public and expected to be attended by a large number of people, including leading figures from the music industry and fans who will gather there to pay their respects to the Pogues frontman who died on Thursday.
More details of that service are expected to be confirmed tomorrow.
Mr MacGowan had strong connections to Co Tipperary where his mother was from and where his father Maurice still lives. His sister Siobhan lives in nearby Dromineer on Lough Derg.
His funeral takes place on 8 December, the feast of the Immaculate Conception in the Roman Catholic Church.
His friends and family say Mr MacGowan had a great devotion to Our Lady and that his funeral mass will mark this.
It has also been noted that his funeral will take place on the day of the late Sinead O'Connor's birthday, who died earlier this year.
