Morrow Communications’ resident pop svengali, Marty Byrne was back in his element this week when working behind the scenes at Cool FM’s annual Jingle Ball pop party. The 11 act concert saw over 8,000 screaming fans pack the Odyssey Arena for a chart topping line-up featuring the likes of McFly, Shane Filan, Rebecca Ferguson and Union J. Marty was in charge of the backstage media room, as well as negotiating media partnerships, artist liaison for press interviews and dealing with all press enquiries in the run up to the event. The media room saw Northern Ireland’s top bloggers, showbiz reporters and press photographers meeting the acts for a round of quick-fire questions and photos just before they went on stage.
Jingle Ball 2013 was a huge success, with tickets for the 2014 gig already available to purchase and the event quickly establishing itself as Northern Ireland's top pop event of the year.
Speaking of the experience, Marty described his work on Jingle Ball 2013 as putting the ‘fun’ into ‘a fundamentally long day’ and confirmed he will now be adding “ability to look unimpressed in the face of X-Factor finalists,” “hobnobbing with Matt Cardle” and “blushing in the presence of Harry Judd” to his Linked-In profile.
