Arthurs Day returns for 2011, celebrating the big man and his creation of the black stuff that so seems to define Irish culture (I mean a tourist can’t come to Ireland without having a pint of Guinness, even Obama had one).

So this year is another set of big acts and Irish acts mixed in together and will most likely be in some very intimate venues in Dublin, Limerick, Belfast and Cork.

The gigs will take place on September 22nd and will feature Stereophonics, Scissor Sisters, Paloma Faith, Calvin Harris, Aloe Blacc, A Plastic Rose, Edsheeran, Ash, Miles Kane, Ryan Sheridan, Royseven, Cashier No9, Bressie, The Lowly Nights, The Kanyu Tree, Keywest.

That’s the full lineup for now. More might be added in coming weeks. What does everyone think of the lineup so far?
