Farmers Bash to return for 3rd massive country event in 2019
This year's watershed moment for Irish country music may just be over with the biggest indoor event the genre has seen in Ireland. Promoters have just announced details of the 2019 event at Belfast’s SSE Arena.
Whilst the line up for the Farmers Bash 2019 is still under wraps, early bird tickets go on sale on Saturday 20th October at 10.00 a.m. through Ticketmaster outlets, The SSE Arena, Belfast box office & online at ticketmaster.ie
The Farmers Bash was the brainchild of promoters Nigel Campbell and LSFX Productions supremo Darren Gardiner, both no strangers to running big events. To some it was considered a gamble taking country away from the local community hall and marquees for one night. So much was the experience and feel good about the event that the country –cousin city slickers turned out in their thousands to give the boys from the country a run for their money on the dance floor; many even wearing the custom garb of check shirt, stone-washed denim and tan boots.
The scale of the event was not something the regular Irish country music fan had witnessed before with super trouper spot lighting, pyrotechnics, confetti cannons, camera jibs and a video screen the size of a bungalow adorning the stage.
The Farmers Bash has raised the bar for country and put the favourite social outing for thousands firmly on the map in Belfast. Next October 11th 2019, the organisers will repeat the event in the SSE with the promise to increase the scale of the production and line-up
