Derry to stage free concert as the first UK City of Culture legacy event tonight

Derry will stage its first UK City of Culture legacy event tonight.
There will be performances from former Westlife star Shane Filan, Little Bear and the Clameens.
The event starts at 730pm at the Peace Garden on Foyle Street.
The concert, which will be hosted by Edith Bowman from BBC Radio 1, is a free public event that will combine outdoor music with the visual Global Rainbow art installation.
Derry City Council commissioned New York and Berlin based visual artist Yvette Mattern to bring her Rainbow to the city for the first time.
Mayor Martin Reilly said the event is the city’s way of thanking all who participated in the “monumental success of last year” when Derry was the first UK City of Culture.
