Two-day music festival on its way?

Rumours are circulating that a major two-day music festival will take place in Londonderry in September.

It is understood that initial local investment could be in the region of £1,000,000 and that it will attract well-known international bands and singers.

The festival will be staged in Ebrington Square and it is also rumoured that TV giants ‘MTV’ are rumoured to be involved.

It is understood that the City Council may well confirm the event in the course of the coming week.

In a statement on Monday the chairwoman of the City Council’s Development Committee, Elisha McCallion, she was “quietly confident” something could happen.

“At this stage I can’t say too much but I would be quietly confident if we can collectively work together as one we can make this happen for our city and particularly our young people,” she said.
