PINK’S SUMMER CARNIVAL COMES TO TOWN
11 June 2010
P!NK'S all new stadium show rolls into Belfast next week at the Kings Hall Complex on the 16th June as part of her Summer Carnival Tour.
With a huge fanbase throughout Ireland, Pink sold out 8 shows last year selling over 96,000 tickets. Back in Europe once again, her astonishing and record-breaking Funhouse Tour will be transformed into an open air Summer Carnival spectacular with a visually stunning new production and Pink's special brand of high octane and dazzling performance. In true Pink style the fans will see new stunts including being blown out of a box 100ft in the air, rolling over the audience in a huge inflatable ball and flying like Peter Pan across the stadium!
Speaking about the concert, promoter Peter Aiken said, "Aiken Promotions is delighted to have Pink back this summer; she always puts on an amazing show. This is a huge production specially designed for stadiums featuring all her hits and a few surprise covers."
"We have been working with the public authorities and Translink to ensure that travel to and from the gig will be as easy as possible. There will be a number of extra services operating on the night and a range of travel options for concert goers to choose from," said Peter Aiken.
For anyone driving to the gig, there is a concert car park at Strangford Avenue playing field which will be well sign posted and a range of other car parks in the surrounding area.
The King's Hall Complex is across the road from Balmoral train station and special services will drop off and pick up at the venue, making the rail travel a convenient option to avoid car parking and congestion.
Ulsterbus will operate special coaches serving areas right across Northern Ireland including: the North West, Omagh, Dungannon, Coleraine, Ballymena, Antrim, Armagh, Portadown, Newry, Banbridge and Lisburn. These return services are available from £9.99 and can only be purchased online. And for anyone in Belfast travelling to the Kings' Hall, the Metro 9 bus corridor runs past the King's Hall.
Following the concert, additional NI Railways services will operate from Balmoral in both directions to Portadown and Great Victoria Street station. Onward connections will be available to Bangor and Carrickfergus and Translink will alter some existing departure times heading in both Portadown and Belfast directions in order to collect fans and enable them to meet onward train connections.

Taxis will be available outside the immediate area around the King's Hall and in the city centre -and on a hot summers night what could be better than a walk home to relive the memories of a great concert!
