Niall Breslin returns with his show 'The Place That Has Never Been Wounded', blending music, spoken word and real-time visual design, marking his first Belfast date.
Niall Breslin plays The Harrison on Tuesday 20 October, his first Belfast date. He's touring The Place That Has Never Been Wounded, the album and No.1 best-selling book that share the name. It follows a sold-out national run last year, and this is part of a renewed series of performances across Ireland.
The show is built around storytelling, spoken word and contemporary classical music. On the larger stages of the 2026 run, he's joined by The Polaris Quartet, with the music, the spoken word and real-time visual design woven together. The album was named one of the Best Irish Albums of the Year by The Irish Times, and Adam Clayton called it "a deeply spiritual and affirming body of work."
