Catfish and The Bottlemen announce HUGE summer show in Liverpool's Sefton Park!

Multi Platinum-selling, BRIT Award-winning, arena-filling giants Catfish and the Bottlemen’s epic return continues to hit new heights today with the announcement of a massive outdoor show on Thursday 11th July in Liverpool’s stunning Sefton Park this summer. One of the largest outdoor concerts the city of Liverpool has ever seen, the 32,000 capacity site promises to be the biggest headline show of the band’s career to date.

Today’s announcement follows Catfish and the Bottlemen’s stunning return last month with the anthemic, stadium-ready new single ‘Showtime’, their first in five years. It came accompanied by the news of three huge open air shows in Cardiff and Edinburgh, both of which went on to sell out in minutes. Their frenzied fanbase has been on high alert since it was announced that they would be headlining Reading & Leeds Festival’s mainstage for the second time this summer, and the news of their biggest headline show to date will only serve to ramp up the anticipation ahead of what will be a landmark summer for one of the nation’s best loved live bands.

Catfish and the Bottlemen’s arena-filling sonic outlook has cemented their place amongst Britain's most successful bands of the 21st Century. Signing to Island Records in 2014 after years of relentless touring, their debut LP The Balcony surged into the UK Top 10 and helped them scoop British Breakthrough Act at the BRITs before scoring their landmark #1 album with 'The Ride'. Since then they’ve amassed over one billion streams, two million album sales and are closing in on 10 million single sales. On stage Van McCann possesses unique magnetic energy, and is considered one of modern rock’s great live frontmen. In the five years since releasing their debut album, they’d sold over half a million tickets, and have played to over 2 million people.

Van McCann is back where he’s meant to be: headlining festivals, finishing a brand new album, and beginning a dynamic, exciting new era for Catfish and the Bottlemen.

Tickets will be on general sale at 10:00 BST this Friday 19th April. Sign up for presale tickets here.
