Cork ‘vibe’ lures megastars to Live at the Marquee every year

Music fans can expect the Live at the Marquee 2016 line-up to be every bit as impressive as this year’s phenomenal offering, says event promoter Peter Aiken.

And there’s a more compelling reason than the obvious business sense. Yes, close to 100,000 people have attended this summer’s 25 gigs; the venue started with 12 acts 11 years ago, and mushrooms year-on-year.

However, the real driving force for the Marquee’s future is that the stars just love coming here.
