Irish folk trio Amble will headline Live at the Docklands in Limerick on Thursday August 20th, 2026, marking a major homecoming celebration for one of the country’s most exciting bands.

Fresh off a meteoric rise that has seen them sell out venues across Europe and North America — including a triumphant sold-out show at King John’s Castle in 2025 — Amble continue to captivate audiences with their spellbinding harmonies, poetic storytelling, and raw acoustic sound.

The West-of-Ireland trio have amassed over 100 million streams and built a global following thanks to beloved tracks like “Mariner Boy,” “Mary’s Pub,” and “Lonely Island,” alongside their deeply anticipated debut album Reverie, recorded live together in a circle to preserve their intimate, organic magic.

Returning to Limerick, fans can expect a powerful, emotional evening from a group whose rise feels as heartfelt and honest as their music.

Speaking at the launch, Mick Dolan said:

“We are delighted to announce Amble as the first act for Live at the Docklands 2026. Their sold-out King John’s Castle show last year was a landmark moment, and seeing their journey from those early days to worldwide stages has been incredible. Amble bring a rare sincerity and connection to their performances — this Docklands show will be something truly special.”

Tickets go on sale this Friday November 14th at 10am from Dolans.ie and Ticketmaster.ie.
