At Market Place Theatre and Arts Centre · Market Street, Armagh, Co. Armagh BT61 7BW
Made in Tennessee brings an authentic Nashville country music experience to Market Place Theatre on Friday 9 October 2026, with a live band and vocals working through classic and contemporary country songs. The show follows straight on from Calum MacPhail’s acoustic concert the night before, giving the venue back-to-back music nights at the start of its October run.
Country music has a strong following in County Armagh, and shows like this one - built around the Nashville sound rather than a specific tribute act - tend to draw a loyal crowd looking for a full band, dance-friendly night out rather than a seated acoustic set. It plays the main auditorium as a standalone evening concert.
Market Place Theatre sits on Market Street in Armagh city centre. Armagh is roughly 40 minutes from Belfast via the A3, and around an hour from Dublin via the M1 and A28. Translink buses run from Belfast’s Europa Buscentre into Armagh bus station on Lonsdale Road, a short walk from the theatre, and pay-and-display parking is available nearby on Thomas Street and Scotch Street.
Armagh’s compact city centre makes it easy to build a full evening around a show. Two cathedrals, both named St Patrick’s, sit on facing hilltops in the city, and the Armagh Observatory and Planetarium is a short walk from Market Street. A number of pubs and restaurants around the Shambles and English Street are within easy reach for dinner beforehand.
