    Trinity Summer Series gigs dates announced, 6 concerts from 23rd-29th July. Acts to be announced in the coming days.

    Wouldn't be surprised if Alt-J play again.

    The Vaccines would be great for this. They're touring but haven't announced any Irish dates yet.

    Yeah, it wasnt announced.

    Arctic Monkeys were booked to play the RDS on the Monday 25th (in between Picture This/Chainsmokers on the Sat/Sun and the Killers on the Tues), but they pulled out so the announcement didn't happen

    Number of outdoor shows is comical this year.

    George Ezra is playing the Trinity Ball. Not sure if that rules him out of any other gigs/festivals in Ireland this summer, presumably won't be playing any of the trinity gigs in July anyway.

    Kylie playing Dublin and Belfast in September - tickets on sale next Friday. Great year for pop shows in Dublin; Harry Styles, Tay, Britney and Kylie.

    If Kesha announced a tour I'd probably have a nervous breakdown.

    What a strange venue for them. Was kind of hoping for them to play EP but that's ruled out now.
