Ash – have announced a headline show at Dublin’s 3Olympia

Downpatrick’s finest, Ash, have today announced a major homecoming headline show at Dublin’s 3Olympia Theatre on Wednesday, 9th December 2026. The date forms part of an extensive international tour celebrating the 30th anniversary of their legendary, chart-topping debut album, 1977. Originally released in 1996, 1977 was the #1 platinum-selling record that catapulted Ash from Northern Irish schoolboy upstarts to global Britpop icons. Three decades on, this 30th Anniversary Edition celebrates the album that defined a generation with its breakneck energy, razor-sharp hooks, and unforgettable anthems including ‘Girl From Mars’, ‘Goldfinger’, ‘Kung Fu’, and ‘Oh Yeah’. The 30th Anniversary Edition will be available on 16th October 2023 via BMG in several formats: 2LP EcoRecord Green & Black ‘InkPlosion’ vinyl, 2CD Digisleeve, and digital. Pre-save / Pre-order the new collection HERE. The band will wrap up their global 1977 tour—which sees them perform across Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia, and Europe—with a final run of UK and Irish dates. Dublin fans can expect a high-octane celebration of the record that started it all in the intimate surroundings of the 3Olympia.
