Kelly Rowland joins Guinness party

Kelly Rowland and Natalie Imbruglia are the final acts to be added to the line-up for the Guinness 250th anniversary party.

They will perform along with Sir Tom Jones, Estelle, Razorlight, Sugababes and Kasabian for the Arthur's Day celebrations which will be hosted by Cat Deeley and Ronan Keating at St James's Gate Brewery in Dublin.

Black Eyed Peas, The Enemy, Mystery Jets, Reverend And The Makers, The Kooks, Jamie Cullum, Roots Manuva, Paolo Nutini, The Magic Numbers and David Gray are also among the acts performing at venues around Dublin and across the world to celebrate Guinness' 250th anniversary on September 24.

Sir Tom said: "I would think it'll be a good party. I enjoy a pint of Guinness so I've got to take my time, I've got to remember that I can't drink too many of those Guinnesses before I sing!"

The Arthur's Day celebrations kick off in Dublin at 17:59pm on September 24 and will travel to cities around the world including Lagos, Yaounde, New York and will finish 24 hours later in Kuala Lumpur, with celebrations taking place in pubs throughout the world.

Guinness lovers including Sir Bob Geldof, Guy Ritchie, Jerry Hall, Lizzie Jagger and Sophie Dahl will also raise a pint of the black stuff on Arthur's Day at 17.59pm Dublin time, in toast to the family's achievements.

As part of the celebrations The Guinness Company has pledged to donate six million euros to the Arthur Guinness Fund to help individuals with skills and opportunities to deliver a measured benefit to their communities.
