Large queues formed since early morning for tickets priced at €99 including fees
US rockers Foo Fighters have announced a surprise last-minute gig in Dublin for Monday night.
Tickets were made available at the 3Olympia Theatre Box Office on Dame Street in Dublin from Sunday afternoon. Since early morning, lengthy queues formed for the concert, with tickets costing €99, fees included.
This announcement follows online speculation that the band had been seen in Ireland over the past week, with alleged sightings of the band’s van in Dingle.
The band last took to the stage in Ireland in 2019. Established in 1994 by ex-Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl, Foo Fighters have sold in excess of 50 million albums globally.
In a post on social media, the organisers outlined several rules regarding ticket sales, reports Dublin Live.
Promoter MCD Productions stated there is a limit of two tickets per person. Only physical debit or credit cards can be used for purchase, cash and contactless cards are not accepted.
Tickets are being sold on a first come first served basis. The gig has an age restriction of 18+.
Those requiring accessible tickets are asked to inform staff at the time of purchase. Transfers are not permitted.
The band have also announced intimate gigs at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on Wednesday, February 25, and at Manchester’s O2 Ritz this Friday, February 27.
