The Shamrocks

Join us for an unforgettable Irish night out with The Shamrocks, the double Emmy® Award-winning band taking the world by storm. Hailing from Belfast, they’ve turned the globe’s biggest stages into lively Irish pub sessions — from the Sydney Opera House to a sold-out run at London’s Adelphi Theatre in the West End. With over 200 million video views, 250,000 followers, and performances across 30 countries,

The Shamrocks are redefining the Irish songbook for a new generation.

So raise a glass, and get ready for a night of Irish craic!

“Even in a West End theatre, they could make you feel like you were singing in a bar in Ireland” - Theatre and Tonic ★★★★★ 

“Their vocals are tight, their harmonies divine, their sense of timing impeccable” - Australian Arts Review
