The Wolfe Tones have announced a 60th anniversary concert in the 3Arena next year.
The iconic rebel band will take to the stage on Saturday, 12th October 2024 at Dublin's 3Arena.
The announcement follows a record-breaking Electric Picnic performance, which drew thousands to the Electric Arena.
Tickets will go on sale at 10am, Friday 15th September 2023 on Ticketmaster and will start at €46.20 per ticket.
The Wolfe Tones have suggested they will be joined by some "very special guests" to celebrate their 60 years on stage.

Crowds arrived more than half an hour before the band took to the stage at Electric Picnic – with aerial shots showing masses of people outside the tent trying to get in.
The performance provoked criticism from some, who suggested the lyrics in some of the songs "romanticised" violence during The Troubles.
However, some attendees said the performance was "electric" and the "highlight of Electric Picnic".
The Wolfe Tones have upcoming performances in the Olympia Theatre, Dublin and the Gleneagle INEC Arena in Kerry in October.
They will return to the Olympia in November for another performance.
