Virgin Media’s The Secret Headliner seeking an Irish artist to play support to a big act

Virgin Media Television’s upcoming TV show The Secret Headliner is seeking an emerging act to play support for the mystery top billing act.

The third episode of the show is being filmed soon and the format sees a popular artist playing anonymously in a local venue smaller than they’d usually play.

An upcoming act is given the opportunity to support as picked by the main act. The first two headliners in the series were Cian Ducrot and Picture This.

A callout for Episode 3 for currently seeking talented Music Artists / Producers, Vocalists, DJs, solo artists and bands is on now until the deadline this Friday April 11th.

The support act will feature in an hour-long episode to air on Virgin Media Television in May 2025.

To enter to be in with a chance email: [email protected], and tell them what genre and experience you have to play the slot.
