The Wolfe Tones

At 3Arena · East Link Bridge, Dublin 1, Co. Dublin

The Wolfe Tones at 3Arena Dublin

The Wolfe Tones have been singing the songs of Irish history and culture since the 1960s ballad boom, and their two-night stand at 3Arena in July 2026 carries a particular weight. After a “Final Farewell” run at Thomond Park in 2025, persistent fan demand pulled the trio - Noel Nagle, Brian Warfield, and Tommy Byrne - back to the stage. For anyone who grew up with Celtic Symphony, Grace, or Let the People Sing, this is a rare chance to hear those songs in a room of thousands who know every word.

What to expect

This is a proper arena show from one of Ireland’s most enduring acts. The Wolfe Tones draw a broad crowd - older fans who have followed them for decades alongside younger listeners who found the band through social media. Expect the floor and seats both to be packed, and singalongs that start before the band even reaches the chorus. Special guests The Wran and Catalpa open the night, so arriving by 7:30pm is worth it.

The original July 3-4 dates sold out quickly after general sale opened in December 2025. Additional nights on 24 and 25 July were added to meet demand - check across all four dates if your first choice is gone.

Getting there

3Arena sits on the north quays at East Link Bridge, Dublin 1, about twenty minutes’ walk from O’Connell Street along the riverside path. The Luas Red Line is the easiest option - board at Jervis or Abbey Street and get off at The Point stop, right beside the venue. Dublin Bus route 151 stops on Castleforbes Road, a two-minute walk from the doors.

If you are driving, The Point Village car park charges around €12 for evening events but fills fast. The Q-Park IFSC and Parkrite IFSC are a short walk away and offer good alternatives. Taxis work well but expect queues after the show.

While you’re in Dublin

The docklands around 3Arena are worth a stroll before the show, and the city centre quays and cultural institutions are a short trip away. There is more to see in Dublin and across Co. Dublin.
