Tickets for Olly Murs’ big outdoor concert at Powderham Castle, Exeter, on Saturday, July 29 are selling rapidly, with a second tranche of tickets now released.

Thousands of fans are expected to descend on the venue, home of the Earl and Countess of Devon, to see Olly, whose latest album 24 Hrs was his fourth consecutive number one hit. He played a sell-out show to more than 20,000 people at the venue in 2013.

The popular singer-songwriter is one of British music’s biggest stars with record sales exceeding 10 million and demand for Powderham tickets has been high.

Promoter Stephen McManus said: “Olly has really been in the public eye recently with lots of TV appearances. That has really ratcheted up demand and our ticket outlets have been inundated with requests to see one of Britain’s very best live performers.

“Therefore, we have now released a second tranche of tickets for both general admission and the Golden Circle, but these are sure to prove popular.”
