On 2026-04-11 Damien Dempsey brings his raw, heartfelt blend of folk, reggae and rock to The Arklow Bay Hotel in Wicklow, promising an intimate evening of powerful storytelling and singalong anthems. The coastal setting and warm, atmospheric rooms of the hotel will amplify Dempsey’s socially charged lyrics and tender ballads, creating moments of raucous audience participation and quieter, moving renditions alike. Expect a set that weaves long-loved classics with selections from his more recent work, delivered with his unmistakable voice and tight, sympathetic backing musicians. With limited capacity in the venue and high local interest, tickets for this special concert are likely to sell quickly, so early booking is recommended to avoid disappointment.
