Damien Dempsey

Wednesday, December 16, 2026 - Vicar St., Dublin 8

On 16 December 2026, Damien Dempsey returns to Vicar St for the second night of his six-show folk residency with Aiken Promotions. The Dublin run follows a busy spell that has included the 2023 single “Hope Calling”, albums such as “Union” and “Soulsun”, and live dates from Hebden Bridge to Limerick. At Vicar St he focuses on his Irish folk songwriting, with storytelling at the core of the performance. Slotted between the 15 and 17 December gigs, this show offers another chance to hear material like “Apple of My Eye” and “A Rainy Night in Soho” in a dedicated folk setting.
