Building on the success of last year's rebooted Feile Classical at Thurles' Semple Stadium, a new festival Tipp Classical has been announced, with a host of Irish musical talents, from The Stunning to Mundy in the line-up.
Tipp Classical will take place on September 20 and 21 at Semple Stadium, with tickets on sale now.
Sultans of Ping, Therapy?, The Frank & Walters and Picture House are also among the acts set to take to the stage.
Something Happens front man and broadcaster Tom Dunne will helm the festival. "We’ve listened and we’re delighted to announce Tipp Classical, a new expanded two-day festival with a line-up that’s a mix of classic 90s and contemporary artists, curated with the ICO’s tributes to some of Ireland’s biggest names in music," he said.
"This year fans can choose on the night to take a seat in the stand or enjoy the gig from the pitch without having to storm security!
"I know Jerry Fish was delighted to have been the ring leader of such anarchy last year, he’ll have to come up with some new plans for mischief for his tent the Tipp Big Top and leave out rebellion at the Main Stage this year!"
Tickets are priced at €159.50 including booking fee for the weekend, with no day tickets available. For more information visit www.tippclassical.com
