At National Stadium · 145 South Circular Road, Dublin 8, D08 HY40
Only the published dates are confirmed for this programme.
Scottish twins Craig and Charlie Reid, better known as The Proclaimers, bring their live show to the National Stadium on South Circular Road, Dublin 8. Best known for “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” and “Letter from America”, they remain a reliable draw for a singalong crowd on a Dublin 8 night out.
Expect a set built around the band’s best known hits alongside material from their long recording career, played with the stripped-back guitar-and-harmonies sound they have kept since the 1980s. The National Stadium’s mid-sized hall gives touring acts like this a more intimate setting than a large arena, and shows here tend to draw an attentive, songs-focused crowd rather than a festival atmosphere. As with most touring shows, exact stage times and any support act are usually confirmed closer to the date. The Proclaimers have toured Ireland regularly over the years and typically play a generous set given their large catalogue of singles, so a Dublin date like this tends to draw a broad, multi-generational crowd rather than one narrow age group.
