Manics, David Gray, Biffy Clyro, Fight Like Apes, Tim Robbins and more added to Arthur’s Day lineup
Tickets for all the studio venues for Arthur’s Day were released this morning through Ticketmaster as 15 new artists have been announced as additions. These are:
Manic Street Preachers, David Gray, Tim Robbins & the Rogues Gallery Band, Biffy Clyro, The Courteeners, Ty, Cathy Davey, David Kitt, Oliver Cole, Fight Like Apes, Keywest, Bitches with Wolves, Ryan Sheridan and Carly Connor.
Guinness also revealed the full lineup of all the venues. Each pub venue will feature a performance from a secret special guest from the studio venues which means you might end up seeing the Manics playing in The Odeon for example. Studio tickets and the outdoor Galway music event will cost €10 while the 28 pub venues will cost €5 with proceeds from all Arthur’s Day ticket sales benefiting the Arthur Guinness Fund™, which is helping Irish social entrepreneurs to deliver transformational change in communities across the island of Ireland.
The Arthur’s Day celebrations will begin at 17:59 at St James’s Gate Brewery in Dublin on 23rd September.
