Stars head to St George's Market

12 November 2008 -

Those planning to travel in Northern Ireland this winter can look forward to a series of concerts taking place in Belfast's St George's Market building.

Primal Scream take to the stage on Sunday November 16th while The Script, Scouting For Girls, Duke Special and Cutie will all perform gigs in the city between now and Christmas.

St George's Market has played host to several top names in the industry, with Newton Faulkner, Mark Ronson and Jimmy Eats World all having played there recently.

Councillor Michael Browne, chairman of Belfast city council's development committee, said locals and visitors can look forward to a bustling period this winter.

"With seven concerts in just over a month already booked, there is no doubt that the Market will be one of the busiest live venues in Belfast in the lead up to Christmas," he stated.

People who plan to travel in Northern Ireland over the Christmas period could be interested in attending one of the shows and, while in the city, explore some of the other attractions.
