Last year, Feile Classical, brought two nostalgia-filled concerts of show-stopping performances to a sold-out crowd of 20,000 to Semple Stadium, re-establishing it as the music Mecca it once was in the 90s. The re-banded Tipp Classical was launched this week by Tom Dunne.

A collaboration by promoters CWB, Tipp Classical returns September 20 and 21 as a new and expanded two-day festival with a line-up that’s a mix of classic 90s and contemporary artists, curated by Dunne and the Irish Chamber Orchestra.

Tipp Classical have announced that Eleanor McEvoy is to join the line-up for the Tipperary Festival in Semple Stadium this summer. Already announced for Tipp Classical are Sultans of Ping, The Stunning, Therapy, Mundy, Wendy James of Transvision Vamp, Something Happens, the Frank and Walters and more, all performing with the ICO.

Picture her signature tune, the powerful and heartfelt ‘Only A Woman’s Heart’ but performed with the sweep and pomp of the entire Irish Chamber Orchestra! Eleanor has very much followed her own musical path with a huge back catalogue. She is a prolific songwriter and talented multi-instrumentalist who can turn her hand to anything and this performance with the Irish Chamber Orchestra will be very special indeed.

Due to incredible demand, we are delighted to announce that DAY TICKETS for both Friday 20th and Saturday 21st September will go on sale Friday, March 1st at 9AM 

Lineups for both days will be announced in the summer and will each feature an amazing bunch of bands and special musical celebrations, all performing live with the Irish Chamber Orchestra. In addition, there will be mischief-maker Jerry Fish, causing mayhem in the Tipp Top, John Meagher of the Irish Independent talking all things music and sport in Tribal Talks, DJ’s Micky Mac and Will Leahy bangin’ out those 90’s choons, Dustin the Turkey with his usual antics, plus food and drinks from Tipperary’s finest and an expanded eco-glamping village.

DAY TICKETS are €89.50 (including all booking fees) and are limited in number. For ticketss and information go to https://tippclassical.eventbrite.com/‬
