Manic
Street Preachers and Suede’s double headlining show at Llangollen
International MusicalEisteddfodhas sold out just an hour after going on
general sale today.
Fans
rushed to buy tickets for the first live music event to be announced for next
year’s celebrated peace festival and within an hour of going on sale all
tickets to the 5,000 capacity show had been sold.
The indie music legends will headline the Llangollen Pavilion on Friday June 28 for the first date in their UK and Ireland tour.
The show is presented in a new partnership between Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod and Live Nation promoters Cuffe and Taylor.
Chair of Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod Sarah Ecob
said: “As soon as we announced Manic Street Preachers and Suede were
opening their tour here, the reaction was amazing and it was clear it was going
to sell quickly.
“Having a sold out show an hour after going on general sale is
brilliant and we cannot wait to welcome these two incredible artists next
summer. This is an amazing start to our
partnership with Cuffe and Taylor and we can’t wait to announce more concerts
at our peace festival.”
Cuffe
and Taylor co-founder Peter Taylor added: “We are delighted with the reaction to
the first show we’ve announced working in partnership with the Llangollen
International Musical Eisteddfod team.
“It
was very important we got our first announcement right and to have such an iconic
Welsh artist as Manic Street Preachers alongside Suede was certainly the right
decision.
“We
now look forward to what is already shaping to be a brilliant summer in
Llangollen.”
The announcement Manic Street Preachers and Suede
will play a double headlining show in Llangollen was followed this week with
the news double platinum and BRIT award-winning artist Paloma Faith will
also head to the festival next year as part of her The Glorification Of
Sadness Tour 2024.
