An 11-year-old boy from Dublin who started mixing tunes as a toddler will DJ at some of Ireland’s best-known festivals this summer, having been inspired by family holidays to Ibiza.

Fifth-class pupil Seán Meenaghan, who is known as DJ Seán M, will perform at Wicklow festivals Beyond the Pale and Kaleidoscope, where he is on the line-ups alongside big names such as Róisín Murphy, Boney M and The Coronas.
