Dido will play Live at the Marquee next summer

The line-up for next year’s Live at the Marquee continues to improve.

British artist Dido has been confirmed as the latest act to take to the stage for Live at the Marquee next summer.

The White Flag singer will perform in Cork on June 10, 2020 with tickets going on sale this Thursday, December 5, at 9am. They will be available from Ticketmaster.

Dido rose to prominence at the turn of the century, with the release of her album No Angel, which featured singles Here With Me, Don’t Think Of Me and Thank You.

That album became one of the best-selling of the decade and Dido followed it up with the platinum-selling Life For Rent, which included hits White Flag, Life For Rent and Don’t Leave Home.

Dido released her first album in six years, Still On My Mind, earlier this year.

She joins the likes of Diana Ross, Christy Moore and Cat Stevens as artists who have already been confirmed for Live at the Marquee.

Next year’s series will be the last time that Live at the Marquee takes place at Cork’s Docklands as the site’s new owners confirmed that development will begin on residential properties after the 2020 concerts.

“Next year will be the last year the site will be available for alternative uses before it is used for new homes,” reads a brief statement from Glenveagh Properties to Lovin.ie.
