Following on from their two sold out Waterfront Hall, Belfast shows later this year, Emmy Award-winning, international Irish Vocal Sensation, The Shamrocks have announced their biggest Belfast headline show to date at the SSE Arena.

📍 Friday 20th November 2026

The roaring, rousing atmosphere of traditional Irish pubs will be brought to stages across the country as The Shamrocks embark on their debut UK tour.

Dubbed ‘one of Northern Ireland’s greatest ever exports’, The Shamrocks promise a night packed full of Irish charm, with classics including Danny Boy, Wild Rover and Whiskey In The Jar reimagined in their unique style, alongside original songs and compositions.

Formed in 2018, the group – brothers Jack and Raymond Walsh, brothers Jimmy and Nathan Johnston, and Matthew Campbell – has consistently won rave reviews including a sold-out West End debut at the Adelphi Theatre last year. They will return to the West End on their 2026 tour with a date at the Cambridge Theatre.

The cross-community quintet features some of Northern Ireland’s most exciting musical talent, with members having featured in West End productions and won Irish dance competitions around the world.
