DanMcCabe 2025 Concert Tour
Extraordinary ticket sales in Ireland over the past 4 years. That is the success story of Kildare ballad singer Dan McCabe.
Dan comes from a long lineage of folk musicians and commenced his career in music at an early age. Dan would eventually go from strength to strength in
this genre of the industry and consequently it became his full-time occupation.
Due to the Covid 19 lockdown and the lack of opportunity to benefit from ‘Live Music’ performances Dan turned his focus to posting self-made videos
of his music on social media platforms, merely as a pastime and an escape from the hardship and gloom of the pandemic. Completely unexpectedly these
recordings would be viewed over 15 million times online and as a consequence, it also caught the attention of senior producers at RTE. Dan was invited to Aras an Uachtarain by President Michael D Higgins and performed ‘The Parting Glass’ to the delight of the president. Dan is currently one the biggest ticket sellers on the Irish Concert scene, selling out venues North and South… His Annual Concert is eagerly awaited by his legion of fans. Don’t miss it.
Enjoy a night of country dancing with Dan McCabe at Woodford Dolmen Hotel.
Concert at 8pm
Doors Open at 7.30
Tickets available at reception for €40.50 including administration fee and TicketMaster at www.ticketmaster.ie/dan-mccabe-carlow-15-02-2025/event/1800609D985442B3
