Music boss Melvin Benn has said he’s already planning next year's Marlay Parks festival – as he confirms almost a quarter of million revellers will descend on the Dublin venue at the end of the month.

Revellers will descend on Rathfarnham’s Marlay Park over the coming weeks for seven headline shows, with a capacity of 40,000 for each night.

The summer shows will kick off on June 20 with Arctic Monkeys followed by two Dermot Kennedy dates on June 23 and 24. The Weeknd will play on June 28, then Def Leppard and Motley Crue on July 4.
