Eoghan Quigg, the teen “X Factor” star, is said to be preparing for a number of gigs at Butlins holiday camps this summer.

According to the holiday camp operator, the 16-year-old will perform several times in July at its Skegness and Bognor Regis resorts.

Recently, Quigg completed a tour with the Irish band Boyzone, and is said to be preparing for his first solo gig, when he will perform at the Ulster hall.

Shannon Healy, from Derry, said: “My daughters Tara (6) and Lucy (5) were over the moon when we told them they’d see Eoghan Quigg on their holidays,” adding: “They watched Eoghan every week on the ‘X Factor’ and loved him. When Eoghan did his big performance at the Guildhall we couldn’t get down because the crowds were so huge.”

The enthusiastic mum went on to say: “Now on Friday they’ll have a chance to see him perform properly. We had no idea when we booked the holiday that Eoghan would be performing in Skegness. It’s great for him.”

When he was on the “X Factor”, the spiky-haired Quigg won the hearts of thousands of fans, and local councillors hailed him as a borough “ambassador”.
