While the funeral will also be open to the public, access inside the cathedral will be limited given the numbers expected.
Music at the funeral will be provided by Hansard’s friends and family.
Born in Ballymun, Dublin, on 21 April 1970, Hansard began performing music at a young age, busking on the streets of Dublin before co-founding The Frames in 1990.
Hansard also appeared in Alan Parker’s 1991 film The Commitments, playing guitarist Outspan Foster.
Mr Hansard and Markéta Irglová won the Oscar for Best Original Song for Falling Slowly in 2008.
The funeral will also be broadcast on the RTÉ News channel.
