Gavin James has seen incredible international success in the last few years having racked up an impressive 1.5 billion streams, 6 million monthly listeners on Spotify and 32 Platinum and Gold records across the globe.

On June 16, the headliner for the racing festival will be The Lightning Seeds, followed by Gavin on July 7, an unannounced act on July 14 and Razorlight on July 21.

Bulmers Secret Orchard Live at Leopardstown has previously welcomed a slew of top international acts including Coolio in 2019, Happy Mondays in 2018, Sister Sledge in 2017 and Boomtown Rats in 2016.

"We cannot wait to have a full crowd cheering and singing after racing in the summer sun here at Leopardstown and there’s great excitement as we announce what we believe is the best ever line up," Tim Husbands previously said.

Much like other years, the performances will be preceded by plenty of racing action.

A wide selection of ticket options are available including the Summer Sizzler, which costs €43 and gives attendees admission to the racing and concert, Bulmers (or soft) drink, €10 festival food voucher and €5 tote bet to A La Carte Dining in the 1888 Restaurant.
