5 gigs to get tickets for this week

We’re directing our thoughts away from the news this week and manifesting a happy, healthy future full of live gigs and dancing.

And we assume you’re all doing the same. As gig announcements continue to roll in from our fave artists, there’s no harm in nabbing yourself a ticket or two and looking ahead to better times. Strongly advised for some of the shows on the list this week, as we imagine they’ll sell out in minutes.

Dermot Kennedy, 3Arena

Dermot Kennedy’s star has continued to grow and grow this past year, and tickets are on sale this Friday for this charity gig at 3Arena, with profits going to Pieta House and Focus Ireland. Be ready to go Friday at 9am, tickets will be available HERE.

Kojaque, Workman’s Cellar

If you’ve been to a gig at the new Workman’s venue, you’ll know it’s extremely intimate and tickets fly out. Throw Kojaque into the mix, and you’d want to move fast my friends. Tickets will be available from 10am tomorrow morning (18th).
