Bulmers Live at Leopardstown names DJ Mark McCabe, Tim Chadwick and Qween as first headliners

Leopardstown Racecourse announced the first three artists for its 2020 series, with DJ Mark McCabe, Tim Chadwick and Qween all set to take the stage

Bulmers Live at Leopardstown returns this summer to the famous Dublin racecourse with another exciting bill of live music. The series spans eight weeks of top class flat racing. Today, Leopardstown Racecourse announces the first three artists for its 2020 series, with DJ Mark McCabe, Tim Chadwick and Qween all set to take the stage with five more acts to be announced in the coming weeks.

“We’re delighted with the variety and quality we’re offering with this year’s line-up; there’s something for all ages and musical tastes and we’re particularly proud to continue our tradition of supporting great Irish music," exclaimed Leopardstown Racecourse CEO Tim Husbands. "Each evening offers something different that you’re not going to want to miss and we’re really looking forward to sharing some more fantastic live acts over the coming weeks.”

Mark McCabe is a DJ/Producer from Dublin, who in recent times has proved just how diverse and dynamic he really is. Currently collaborating with Australian duo The Sunset Bros, LMC and releasing his own music on Universal Music, Mark’s ‘Maniac 2000’ is the second biggest-selling record ever in Ireland and this year celebrates its 20 year anniversary.

His stellar remix of the Gavin James track ‘Nervous’ is still burning bright around the world, having reached over 150 million streams to date.

Tim Chadwick, meanwhile, burst onto the music scene in 2019 with his breakthrough single ‘I Need To Know’, which saw huge support in Ireland & UK, as well as giving the young singer his first charting in the Official Top 50 Singles Charts. Chadwick has continued in early 2020 with another one of his signature 'sad bangers’ - a phrase coined by critics and fans alike describing his brand of pop-centric sad songs - titled ‘Sore Thumb’.

The young Irish singer's recent headline show in Dublin sold out in a whirlwind 48 hours and he has amassed over 20M+ streams online, as well as supporting Mabel, Hudson Taylor and Billy Lockett and playing hit festivals Indiependence, Sea Sessions, Hit The North and Pride.

Following a huge resurgence in the music of rock legends Queen in 2019, thanks to the award-winning film Bohemian Rhapsody, fans of the iconic band will be delighted to learn that one of Europe’s finest tribute acts, Qween, will bring their acclaimed live hour production of Queen’s greatest hits. Qween’s show features a veritable anthology of Queen’s greatest hits from ‘Radio Ga Ga’ to ‘Somebody to Love’, and the band have wowed audiences with a theatrical rock show that brings them right back in time to the front row of a classic Queen gig.
