X Factor and soap star Ray Quinn to perform at Morecambe FC charity night

Singer and actor Ray Quinn will be the guest star at an evening raising funds for the official charity of Morecambe Football Club.

Morecambe FC Community Foundation are hosting a fundraising night on Saturday June 6 to support their vital work across the local community.

The event will be held in the Local Choice Suite at the Mazuma Mobile Stadium, with a special performance from Ray Quinn who is best known for appearing on The X Factor, Brookside and Hollyoaks.

After earning childhood fame playing Anthony Murray in Brookside, he finished runner-up to Leona Lewis in the 2006 series of the smash hit reality TV show The X Factor where his moving performance of Frank Sinatra's 'My Way' earned particular acclaim.

Quinn also won the ITV celebrity ice skating show Dancing On Ice in 2009 and the All Stars series in 2014, and was also the winner of TV talent show Get Your Act Together. He also played Jonny Baxter in Hollyoaks.

His debut album of old school swing classics 'My Way' went platinum and was a UK number one in 2007, and his 'King of Swing' touring shows celebrating the music of The Rat Pack continue to be popular across the UK.

There will also be an Auction of Promises on the night and pie supper is included in the ticket cost of £20. The event starts at 7pm.

Tickets available HERE.

Morecambe FC Community Foundation, the charitable arm of the football club, runs numerous community projects across the local area, for fans of all ages, and has won awards for its work supporting Armed Forces veterans.
