This just in: Northern Ireland’s most internationally successful act, Snow Patrol, will be performing on home turf at the 2011 EMAs in Belfast—and U.S. singer-songwriter Jason Derulo will also deliver a set. Both will take the stage at a just-revealed second EMA location: Belfast’s City Hall. Snow Patrol’s performance will be beamed to the Odyssey Arena, and Jason’s will be featured in the EMA red carpet show. (Though it has been announced that the EMA will span a total of three locations, you’ll have to stay tuned to mtvema.com to find out the third!)

‘We’re really looking forward to performing for the EMAs at such a special location on home turf,’ says Irish-Scottish five-piece Snow Patrol, who have sold more than 11 million albums and been nominated for Grammys, EMAs, and the Mercury Music Prize. ‘It’s going to be a great night and a lot of fun.’

‘This is my first EMA and it's an honour to be asked to perform as I've always been an MTV fan,’ says Jason Derulo, whose recent release ‘Future History’ is a follow-up to his smash self-titled 2010 debut. ‘I am also very excited to perform for my Irish fans and visit Belfast for the first time.’
