Stage show produced by The Dubliners' John Sheahan that brings 50 years of the band's songs and stories to life.
The Dubliners Encore comes to Derby Arena on Thursday 18 March 2027, an official stage show celebrating the songs and stories of The Dubliners. It's produced by one of the band's own, fiddle player and Irish icon John Sheahan, and it's built around the hits that made them famous. The cast works through the songs and stories that defined the band's career, with 'The Wild Rover', 'Seven Drunken Nights', 'The Black Velvet Band', 'Whiskey in the Jar' and 'The Irish Rover' all on the setlist.
The show is described as packing 50 years of the band's songs, stories and craic into a single night, and it runs for about two hours and twenty-five minutes, including an interval. It's a full evening's worth of material rather than a short set, so you'll want to leave a bit of time on either side. Under-16s need to be accompanied by an adult.
