Seven Drunken Nights – The Story of The Dubliners announces biggest ever tour for 2024

Seven Drunken Nights – The Story of The Dubliners will return to theatres for its biggest ever tour.

Direct from the West End and having sold out venues worldwide, a brand new tour begins in 2024.

In partnership with Tourism Ireland and in association with legendary Irish pub O’Donoghue’s – the place where it all started for The Dubliners back in 1962 – Seven Drunken Nights tells the story of a career spanning 50 years and invokes the spirit of Ronnie Drew, Luke Kelly, Barney McKenna, John Sheahan, Ciaran Bourke and Jim McCann.

Leading the ultimate feel-good Irish show, this hugely talented cast of musicians and singers bring the music of this iconic group back to life.

So much more than a jukebox musical celebration of The Dubliners, the show stars its charismatic writer and director Ged Graham, whose narration warmly guides the audience through the fascinating life of the group in between stunning performances of so many of their celebrated classics, including The Irish Rover, The Leaving of Liverpool, Belle of Belfast City, Dirty Old Town, The Banks of the Rose, Star of the County Down and The Town I Love So Well.

The new 2024 tour starts on 1 March in Dunstable and ends on 23 June in Waterford, and includes a date at London’s Dominion Theatre on 17 March and three shows at the 3Olympia Theatre in Dublin across the 14 and 15 June.

Ged Graham said: “I can’t quite believe it. Seven Drunken Nights seems to have touched so many people who have become real fans of the show, reigniting their love of The Dubliners. It’s had a massive impact on my life, giving me the confidence to write more and be involved in many other productions, including the runaway success Fairytale of New York. It truly is a great privilege to bring the music of The Dubliners to the stage every night and keep their legacy alive.”
