An Evening with Celtic Thunder

Celtic Thunder are playing the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts on Sunday, October 11, at 7 PM. The show is called An Evening with Celtic Thunder, and it's part of the 2026 Kauffman Center Presents series.

If you're not familiar with them, Celtic Thunder is a musical and theatrical ensemble that started in Dublin in 2007. They've built a global following around their live performances and state-of-the-art productions, and Billboard has named them the Top World Album Artist five times, with their albums regularly landing in the World Album Top 10. They're known for combining singing with a full stage production, so it's more of a show than a standard concert.

This particular evening is framed as a journey through the group's legacy. The setlist is a curated run of their greatest hits, moving from classic Irish folk songs to more contemporary favorites. The big draw here is the lineup: they're reuniting past and present members on one stage, so you'll see faces from different eras of the group performing together. It's a look back at where they've been as much as it is a night of music.

The performance takes place in the Muriel Kauffman Theatre, and tickets are currently listed as sold out. If you've been following them for years, this is the one where the old and new lineups share the stage.
