Garth Brooks Skips Dublin, Leaving Irish Fans Without a Ticket

Garth Brooks has unveiled a 10‑stop Irish tour for next summer, but the world’s biggest country star will not be performing in Dublin.

The tour will hit five cities – Belfast, Galway, Kilkenny, Limerick and Cork – with a total of ten concerts spread across those locations.

Fans in the capital will have to settle for watching the tour from a distance, as the announced schedule contains no Dublin dates.

Tickets for the Irish shows go on sale next Thursday, giving fans in the five host cities a chance to line up for their chance to see Brooks live.

The omission of Dublin has sparked a flurry of online chatter, but the announced facts remain clear: ten concerts, five Irish cities, and no performance in the Irish capital.
