Slayer, Anthrax and Tom Jones confirmed for Live at the Marquee in Cork this summer

Conor Heneghan

Unfortunately, they’re not all playing on the same night.

There’s going to be an eclectic line-up of artists for the Live at the Marquee gigs this summer as organisers today confirmed that Slayer, Anthrax and Tom Jones will all take to the stage.

Although that sounds like one of the greatest gigs ever, the metal legends and the ever popular crooner will perform on different dates, with Slayer and Anthrax performing on June 15 and Jones’s gig taking place on July 12.

It was also confirmed that Little Mix have added an extra date and will now perform on July 3 and July 4, adding to a schedule that already features the likes of Gavin James, The Corrs, Dropkick Murphys, The Coronas, Imelda May and Nathan Carter.

Tickets for Slayer, Anthrax and Tom Jones go on sale next Friday at 9am, while you can check out the details of the other artists on the Live at the Marquee bill here.

We’re holding out hope that organisers might be able to convince all three to perform live together. If they did, we imagine it would look a little something like this…
