It’s been announced this morning that legendary Irish rockers U2 will play a special one-off gig in Morzine this summer. The Sunday Bloody Sunday and With or Without You hit makers will perform on Saturday 20th August in the town’s main square. And the whole thing will be free!
U2 are just the latest in a succession of big rock acts to grace the big stage of Morzine during the summer season. Last year Toto had the whole village rocking, the year before we welcomed the incredible Simple Minds. And who can forget when Status Quo came to town?
