X-FACTOR finalist Ray Quinn has added a Darlington date to his UK tour.

Mr Quinn, who lost out to Leona Lewis in the 2006 X-Factor final, will perform at Rockliffe Hall on Saturday, April 11.

It is part of Mr Quinn’s Dare to Dream tour and Rockliffe Hall was one of five new venues added after some dates were rescheduled due to the singer winning a place in the Edinburgh Playhouse production of Judy: The Songbook of Judy Garland.

Mr Quinn said he is looking forward to the tour.

He said: “To be taking my love for music out on the road again, I'm very excited.

“I’m right at home singing live on stage so it will be as much as a treat for me as it will my fans.

“This is my passion and I cannot wait!”

Tickets cost from £65 per person, including a two-course meal, and can be booked at www.rockliffehall.com
