Glory Days: Bruce Springsteen Tribute, Hotel Kilmore

At Hotel Kilmore · Dublin Road, Cavan, Co. Cavan
Glory Days, a Bruce Springsteen tribute show, plays Hotel Kilmore on Friday, 25 September 2026, one of a regular run of tribute concerts at the hotel’s function room on the edge of Cavan town. The show recreates Springsteen’s catalogue with a full band, aiming for the E Street Band’s sound and stage energy rather than a stripped-back acoustic tribute. Hotel Kilmore has built a steady concert programme through 2026, mixing country stars, comedy and tribute acts most weekends.
Expect a full band lineup working through Springsteen’s best-known catalogue, from the early Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town material through to the stadium-scale hits that made his live shows famous, with a set built for a room that wants to sing along rather than sit still. Hotel Kilmore’s concert nights typically run with the bar open before and after the show, and the hotel’s function room is set up theatre-style for seated concerts of this size. Shows at the venue generally start around 8pm, in line with the hotel’s other 2026 concert bookings such as Onoir and the Ennis Brothers. Given the hotel’s location on the edge of Cavan town, many attendees travel in from across the county and neighbouring Leitrim and Monaghan for a night out built entirely around the show.
Hotel Kilmore is on the Dublin Road on the edge of Cavan town, with its own car park for guests attending events, so driving is the easiest option. Cavan town’s bus station, served by Bus Eireann’s Dublin to Enniskillen route, is a short taxi ride from the hotel for anyone travelling without a car.
Hotel Kilmore sits just outside Cavan town, the county town and Ireland’s only medieval Gaelic town, so a night at a Glory Days show pairs easily with an earlier stop on Main Street or around the Cathedral. There is more to explore across Co. Cavan.
