At Nuremore Estate by McGettigan's · Tullynaskeagh East, Nuremore, Carrickmacross, Co. Monaghan
Country singer Mike Denver plays a late show at Nuremore Estate by McGettigan’s on Saturday, 8 August 2026, with the music running from 10pm to midnight. Denver is one of the steadier names on the Irish country circuit, and this is a hotel gig rather than a festival slot, so it draws the kind of crowd that comes for a proper dance and a sing-along rather than a standing gig in a field.
Nuremore Estate, formerly known as the Nuremore Hotel and Country Club, has been operating under the McGettigan’s group in recent years and continues to host hotel-circuit country music nights alongside its golf course and leisure club. A late show like this one typically runs in the hotel’s function space rather than the main bar, with a dancefloor set up in front of the stage and table seating around it, which is the standard format for a country night in a hotel of this size. Doors are usually earlier than the listed start time, with a support act or DJ warming the room up before the headline set. Exact set details and any support act were not published by the venue at the time of writing, so it is worth checking Nuremore’s own Facebook page closer to the date for a running order.
Nuremore Estate sits just off the N2, about 3km south of Carrickmacross town on the road toward Ardee, so it is an easy stop for anyone driving the Dublin to Monaghan corridor. Bus Eireann’s N2 services between Dublin and Monaghan/Derry stop in Carrickmacross town, from where the hotel is a short taxi ride rather than a walk. The hotel has its own car park, which is the practical option for anyone driving to the show.
Carrickmacross is a market town built around a long lace-making tradition, and the Carrickmacross Workhouse on the edge of town runs famine-history tours if you want to make an afternoon of it before the evening show. There is more to see in Carrickmacross and across Co. Monaghan.
