At Diamond Coast Hotel · Enniscrone, Co. Sligo
Diamond Coast Hotel in Enniscrone hosts The Whistlin’ Donkeys on Saturday, 17 October 2026, part of the hotel’s ongoing autumn programme of weekend live music nights. The date sits a week after the hotel’s Clada gig, continuing a run of Saturday night bookings through the second half of October.
The hotel’s events listing confirms the date but does not give a detailed programme note or start time, so the specifics of the set are not fully published. Diamond Coast Hotel has built a reputation through 2026 as one of the more active live music venues in Enniscrone, running a weekly Trad and Tapas session on Mondays and booking bigger weekend acts and tribute nights through the summer and autumn, including its August Coldplay by Candlelight show. A Saturday night act of this kind typically plays a covers-led set aimed at a hotel bar and function room crowd rather than a formal concert, drawing both overnight guests and locals from the town. Anyone planning to attend should confirm the exact start time, entry price and whether booking is required directly with the hotel, since those details were not published on the listing. The band follows Clada, who play the hotel the previous Saturday, making mid October a two-weekend run of live music at the venue.
Enniscrone is on the N59 coast road, around a forty minute drive southwest of Sligo town, with the hotel on the seafront in the centre of the town. There is more to see in Enniscrone and across Co. Sligo.
