The eagerly-anticipated Wolfe Tones concert in Birdhill takes place on August 27.

Wolfe Tones concert in Birdhill

The Wolfe Tones play their only outdoor concert of 2022 in the Republic of Ireland on Saturday, August 27, in Birdhill, and they've just announced some very special guests to join them at this almost sold out show.

Tipperary singer songwriter James Mc Grath and Limerick ballad stalwarts The Rogues will open proceedings before the Wolfe Tones take to the stage.

Throughout a career spanning over 40 years, the Wolfe Tones have released over a dozen top selling albums, had ‘A Nation Once Again’ voted the World Best Song on the BBC and remained relevant to generations. Legends in their own lifetimes, the Wolfe Tones continue to sell out venues across the globe from Carnegie Hall in New York to Barrowlands in Glasgow.

2022 sees the group celebrate an unbelievable 58 years on the road. The Wolfe Tones longevity is remarkable, but it is no surprise. They have been the soundtrack to a generation of Irish across the world.

Hear the songs that have made legends of Irish music; from ‘Grace’ to ‘Joe McDonnell’, ‘Celtic Symphony’ to ‘The Streets of New York’, The Wolfe Tones will make the rafters ring in their own unique style! This will be the Wolfe Tones’ only outdoor concert of the year and the unique setting of Boland’s in Ballyhane at the village of Birdhill, which restarted its 40-year tradition as a home of live music last year with a run of sold-out shows, will make this a night to remember.

This is an over 18s event with a full supporting lineup. Gates open at 5pm with a full bar in place. Tickets are available from Ticketmaster.ie.
