Country music stars Derek Ryan, Lisa McHugh and Robert Mizzell will all be taking part at the Farmers Bash event. They were also present at the SSE today for the launch, giving a taste of whats to come!
Comparing the launch today was Kirstie McMurray from Downtown Country, who along with Downtown Radio will be the broadcast media partner for this ‘first of its kind’ event. Also present were Marty Mone ‘Hit The Diff’ , country favorites Hugo Duncan with Country Harmony and Ruairi McSorley (aka Frostbit Boy).
The Farmers Bash will take place on October 6, 2017 at Belfast’s flagship SSE Arena featuring popular, high-caliber country music artists and professional state of the art sound production on a spectacular purpose built stage.
This ambitious event, presented by LSFX Productions, will be the UK & Ireland’s BIGGEST EVER indoor Country Music Dance.
We expect to see thousands of folk travel up from the south and across the water for the one of a kind event, so get that hotel booked early!
Recently speaking to Downtown Country, event spokesperson Darren Gardiner said: “The Farmers Bash promises to be the ultimate country music event to be staged in Northern Ireland. Its one massive stage, one massive dance floor and one massive party!
“We are expecting thousands of jiving and country music fans to come along to the SSE Arena on October 6 for a high-octane event of music and dancing as well as a few other surprises and special guests.
“Country music has soared in popularity in recent years and there is a huge fan base for the music, who want to come together to enjoy themselves, dancing to the music they love. The energy and excitement around this event will be something special.
“We have already had a great response to the news we are staging this family-friendly event in Belfast and we are sure tickets are going to sell out fast.”
Tickets are on sale for the Farmers Bash from 10am on Saturday 6th May priced at £28.00 and £30.00 and available from www.ticketmaster.ie and outlets nationwide.
Of course, for those who can’t wait to October, the next big country music event is the Nashville Cast concert, taking place in the SSE Arena, Belfast on June 20th, 2017.
