The chart-topper commented
“Irish audiences are well-known as being amongst the best in the world, and having played Belfast several times I can definitely confirm this is true. I’m psyched to be headlining Live at the Square and can’t wait to play in Derry for the first time.”
Taking place from August 27 – 30 August, event organisers say this year’s Live at the Square aims to showcase top-tier international talent alongside local artists, celebrating the region’s vibrant music culture.
Karl Diamond, organizer of Live at The Square said:“We are thrilled to welcome James Arthur to Derry for Live at the Square.

This will be a spectacular night of live music in the heart of our city.”
