Could stars visit city for Arthur’s Day?

GUINNESS & CO has announced that folk rock talismen Mumford & Sons, Scottish alternative rock legends Primal Scream and New York hip hop icons Fun Lovin’ Criminals have been added to the stellar line-up of headline artists who will be turning up for surprise performances in local pubs in both Northern and Southern Ireland this year’s Arthur’s Day.

Taking place on 27th September, this year there are no tickets on sale, just grab some mates and head to one of the free Arthur’s Day music events taking place in local pubs across Co Londonderry. It promises to be a remarkable night of live music featuring hundreds of home grown artists but, as usual, Arthur’s Day will also be a night full of surprises.
