They auditioned for the ninth series of the British television music competition The X Factor where they finished fourth and were subsequently signed to Sony Music subsidiary RCA Records. Their debut single “Carry You” was released in June 2013. Their self-titled debut studio album followed in October 2013 and peaked at number six on the UK Albums Chart. Union J are now with Epic Records promoting the release of their second album You Got It All – The Album.
Union J will be joined by Stooshe, a British chart topping, Platinum selling UK girl group consisting of Alex, Karis and Courtney. They have had 4 top 20 hits, been nominated for a BRIT Award, have closed the MOBO’s and toured with Nick Minaj and J-Lo.
These headliners will be supported by Bailey McConnell, from Britain’s Got Talent fame, who returns to Flamingo Land after a success performance with them at a Party in the Park concert last year.
“This will be our second Party in the Park this Season. The first concert was a great success and we look forward to creating a sensational atmosphere again as these two popular acts take to the stage this Saturday” said Sarah Mills Director of Marketing Flamingo Land Resort.
“Party in the Park is a great way to spend a summer’s evening and guests can buy a theme park ticket for the day which then gives them free access to the concert. Alternatively they can arrive at 5pm for an hour in the theme park and zoo followed by the concert for just £10 each.” said Sarah. “There is a wide variety of food and drink outlets around Riverside One so that guests can make it a social occasion.”
The concert starts at 6pm with a children’s Farewell Show followed by the Spice Pirates acrobatic troupe and a host of supporting acts before the 2 headline acts take to the stage. The event concludes at approximately 10pm. Tickets are on sale on the Flamingo Land website.
