Van Morrison is headlining The Feis, a new festival taking place on July 7 in Liverpool’s World Heritage Waterfront.
Part of the city’s European Capital of Culture festivities, it’s the brainchild of former Mean Fiddler supremo Vince Power and will also feature The Chieftains, Imelda May, The Hothouse Flowers, Foy Vance, The Coronas, Aslan, Finbar Furey, Paul Brady, Hudson Taylor, The Stunning, Nathan Carter, Damien Dempsey, Dublin Legends, Sharon Shannon, Mary Coughlan, Jack L and Mundy.
“I’m proud and delighted to bring The Feis to Liverpool, a great city with such strong ties to Ireland,” Power enthuses. “I have always wanted to do an Irish music festival here."
Tickets go on sale at 10am on Valentine’s Day from Ticketmaster UK and the feis1.com website.
