A spokesperson for the organisers says: "We’re incredibly excited to announce as the first headliner for our 2025 Live at Ludlow Castle series!
"Since rising to fame as a star on The X-Factor, Olly Murs is now a household name with a string of huge number one singles under his belt including Heart Skips a Beat and Troublemaker.
"He brings his distinct blend of pop, indie, ska and disco to Ludlow Castle on Saturday 26th July 2025."
