Straight from London’s West End and after countless sold-out performances around the world, they are finally returning: Seven Drunken Nights - The Story of The Dubliners.

This critically acclaimed production brings to life the remarkable story of one of Ireland’s most beloved and influential folk bands. In close collaboration with the legendary Irish pub O’Donoghue’s - the very place in Dublin where the journey of The Dubliners began back in 1962 - and with the support of the Irish Tourist Board, this show has become a true celebration of heritage, music, and storytelling.

The songs, stories, and humour behind The Dubliners

With a six-piece ensemble of outstanding musicians and singers, Seven Drunken Nights traces the unforgettable five-decade career of The Dubliners. Audiences are taken on a journey through the band’s humble beginnings in a small Dublin pub to their rise as international folk legends, adored across generations.

Along the way, the performance captures not only the songs but also the stories, humour, and character that made The Dubliners unique.

The cast is made up of extraordinarily talented performers who recreate the raw energy, warmth, and unmistakable sound of the band. Their passion for the music shines through every chord, every lyric, and every beat, transporting audiences back to an era when Irish folk music first conquered the world stage.

Songs such as Whiskey in the Jar, The Wild Rover, and, of course, Seven Drunken Nights are delivered with such authenticity and flair that audiences cannot help but sing along.

A theatrical experience that interweaves live performance with storytelling

But this production is far more than just a concert. It is a theatrical experience that interweaves live performance with storytelling, transporting the audience to the smoky pubs, lively streets, and spirited gatherings of Ireland in the 1960s and beyond.
