The landmark tour will see the multi-platinum singer-songwriter perform at venues across Europe before heading to UK arenas. The announcement follows last month’s announcement of two headline shows at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium, the home of Irish Rugby.

The shows will feature fan favourites spanning Dermot’s discography alongside new material to be released in 2026.

Dermot Kennedy has achieved 4 billion streams across multiple platforms and holds the distinction of having the best-selling debut album in Ireland of this millennium with ‘Without Fear’. As a platinum-certified artist in more than 12 countries, he released his highly regarded second album, ‘Sonder’, in 2022. In 2024, he went back to basics with introspective EP, ‘I’ve told the trees everything’.

From sharing the stage with contemporaries like Niall Horan, Noah Kahan, and Zach Bryan to earning praise from the likes of Taylor Swift and Shawn Mendes, Dermot Kennedy’s rise has been nothing short of impressive.

His incredible journey has carried him from busking on the streets of Ireland to playing stadiums around the world, and his poetic, authentic artistry continues to forge a deep and lasting emotional connection with audiences everywhere.
