THE lineup has been finalised for a memorial event at Pennington Hall Park tomorrow evening, Tuesday, which will mark the first anniversary since the Manchester Arena bomb attack.

Paul Sargent, who organised a vigil outside Leigh Town Hall Square that 300 people attended, will greet the audience at 6.45pm and say a few words in relation to the tragedy last May in which 22 people were killed and more than 100 others were injured at the Ariana Grande concert.

He will then introduce 16-year-old Lowton singer Jack Hillidge, who was at the American singer's gig on the night of the suicide bomb attack, to perform her version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow.

A two-minute silence will then take place at the St Helens Road park to give the crowd a chance to pay their respects to people who lost their lives in the suicide bomb attack.

Jack will pick up the microphone again to recite some poignant comments made by Ariana Grande in the days after the terrorist incident last year before singing her hit song One Last Time.

Eleven-year-old Molly Catterall will then take centre stage with a performance of Somewhere Only We Know, in the style of the John Lewis TV advert, and follow it with Hallelujah.

Tony Walsh's poem This is the Place, which he memorably read aloud outside Manchester Albert Square last year, will then be recited by Louise Sharrock Sivill.

She will be followed by 16-year-old Matthew Baron who will sing Frank Sinatra's Come Fly With Me and Westlife's You Raise Me Up.

The evening will be rounded off at around 7.40pm by Leigh singer Zoe Unsworth, who will perform Oasis' song Don't Look Back in Anger, which was regularly played as a symbol of unity for Manchester last year.
