The Dubliners celebrate their 50th Anniversary at Manchester Irish Festival

The Dubliners who are one of the Manchester Irish Festival’s favourite traditional Irish bands, and recent Lifetime Achievers Music Award winners here in Manchester, will play a special anniversary concert to mark their 50th year together.

The Concert takes place on Wednesday 14th March at the Opera House.

Lawrence Hennigan from the festival website said "We are delighted that such a world famous band has selected the Manchester Irish Festival to celebrate their 50th anniversary. They are all great supporters of the festival and we are delighted to have them as part of their international anniversary tour."

There are no musical barriers where The Dubliners are concerned. Their concerts have been attended over the years by such notables as U2, Stephane Grappelli, Prince Rainier, James Galway, Kate Bush, Terence Trent D’Arby, UB40, Nigel Kennedy, Van Morrison, Peter O’Toole and a host of Statesmen, Lord Mayors, Civic Dignitaries and millions of music fans throughout the world.

The Dubliners popularity is unquestionable and their contribution to the world of folk music is unparalleled. After an incredible forty-nine years of globetrotting they have never compromised through ever-changing musical fads.

They are probably the best accident to happen to the world of folk music and contribute to it not only with their superb voices, but also with their exceptional talent as musicians and entertainers.
