Tommy Fleming - The Encore Tour, Armagh City Hotel

What to Expect

Irish singer Tommy Fleming brings his Encore Tour to the Armagh City Hotel on Friday 16 October 2026, working through the ballads and traditional Irish songs that have defined a career spanning more than three decades. One of Ireland’s best-known ballad voices, Fleming’s live shows lean on a full backing band and a setlist built for a seated, listening audience rather than a singalong crowd, distinguishing it from the hotel’s more upbeat tribute nights. The Encore Tour billing suggests a set drawing on highlights from across his catalogue.

Mid-October is a busy stretch for the hotel’s live music programme, and Fleming is one of the better-known names on the autumn 2026 bill. He first came to wider attention singing with De Dannan in the 1990s and has toured and recorded steadily since, and his shows are consistently among the best-attended concerts the hotel puts on, so this Encore Tour date is likely to be one of the season’s bigger draws for the venue.

Good to Know

• Friday 16 October 2026, 7:00pm start
• Venue: Armagh City Hotel, 2 Friary Road, Armagh BT60 4FR
• Ticketed, book via Ticketmaster or the hotel’s ticketing partner
• Seated concert format; arrive in good time as the hotel’s bigger-name shows tend to sell out

Getting There

Armagh City Hotel sits on the southern edge of Armagh city with parking on site for evening events. Translink buses from Belfast and Newry run into Armagh’s Lonsdale Road bus station, roughly a ten-minute walk or short taxi from the hotel.

While You’re in Armagh

Armagh’s two St Patrick’s cathedrals and the Georgian streets around the Mall make for an easy pre-show visit, and the hotel offers show-and-stay packages for guests travelling from further afield for its bigger concert nights, worth checking when booking tickets. Given the venue’s track record of selling out its higher-profile shows, early booking is the safer option for anyone planning a night around this one.
