ONLINE EXCLUSIVE: Bob Dylan confirmed for summer concert at Limerick's Thomond Park
THE LIMERICK Leader can exclusively reveal that the legendary Bob Dylan is to play in Thomond Park this July 4.
It will be the only date that Dylan will play in Ireland this summer and tickets are to go on sale this coming Monday.
Speaking exclusively to the Limerick Leader this Wednesday afternoon, promoter Peter Aiken said securing Dylan's services for a large outdoor summer show was "massive", but said the concert was going to be "all about the music".
"It is going to be big, but it is going to be about the music - people will come from all over to see him," said Peter.
The promoter also confirmed that up to four other acts are going to share the bill with Dylan, with doors opening on the day at 2pm.
"We are going to have another four acts on the same day, it will be a really good day of good music - three of the acts will be very well-known, household names and people should be very impressed with what we are going to do," said Mr Aiken.
Dylan is the second act announced for Thomond Park this summer, with pop star Pink set to perform in June.
