Christy Moore comes to Cork’s summertime venue Live At The Marquee for what promises to be an unforgettable night of folk ballads and rousing songs. You’re guaranteed to hear plenty of old favourites and a few new ones from the pen of Christy Moore himself.

Anyone who has ever experienced Christy Moore live will tell you that there’ll be no end of anecdotes and hilarious stories as he connects each song with his witty personality. From the ever popular ‘Ride On’ to ‘Black Is The Colour’ to the superb ‘Don’t Forget Your Shovel’ the music is bound to have the crowd on their feet.

With close to 40 years in the business, no one can hold a live audience quite like Christy Moore. His huge album production through the decades has ensured that his music now spans generations and his fans exist throughout the world.

This is actually the fourth year that he has graced Live At The Marquee and not surprisingly the concert is completely sold out according to the event promoter, Aiken Promotions.
