London’s own Bôa took to the National Stadium in Dublin on Saturday night. The band delivered an 80‑minute set, balancing some deeper cuts with fan favourites. The National Stadium was the perfect setting for the performance. The venue is intimate enough to feel included from anywhere while still boasting a large capacity.
The evening was a testament to the band’s growth since the ’90s, offering fans both the familiar comfort of “Duvet” and the fresh resonance of new material. It was a celebration of their journey and a promise of what’s to come next. For longtime followers, it was a heartfelt reunion. For new listeners, it was a compelling invitation into bôa’s evolving world.
Francis of Delirium injected some incredible energy into the evening as the opening act. Jane Bahrich knows how to run a show, the whole place was bouncing from the off.
