A Mardi Gras style carnival event is coming to Leopardstown next week and the headlining act is amazing

A Mardi Gras style carnival event is coming to Leopardstown next week and the headlining act for it has been revealed.

Stomptown Brass are set to take the stage by storm at this summer's Bulmers Carnival Night at Leopardstown on Thursday next week.

Stomptown Brass has emerged as one of the most unique acts in Ireland performing their blend of funk and blues with a raucous cacophony of powerful driving rhythms.

Fans will have the chance to see the band play “flash mob” style music in between races alongside Rio carnival characters walking amongst the crowds and street theatre performances featuring Horrid Helga’s Victorian Circus.

Other popular acts at Leopardstown will include Something Happens (July 25), Bay City Rollers (August 8), and All Saints (August 15).

The live performances will be preceded by an excellent card of racing and a wide selection of ticket options, from the great value ‘Summer Sizzler’, which at €33 includes admission to the racing and concert, Bulmers (or soft) drink, €10 festival food voucher and €5 tote bet, to The Pavilion Party - a reserved table in the Pavilion or The Panoramic Suite; with views overlooking the finishing straight, where you can enjoy banqueting buffet style dining for only €70.
