December 10 – The Next Step tour live gallery and review from  The National Stadium, Dublin 21.07.2026

Last night, The National Stadium in Dublin was completely packed for December 10’s headline show. The venue hit capacity early, filled with a sea of eager, young fans ready for the set.

The wait stretched out a bit longer than expected due to some minor technical issues before the lights went down. However, the brief delay just built up the excitement across the room. Looking across the crowd, fans held up dozens of handmade signs begging to “be their angels.” This was a clear nod to the band’s hit single, a track that clearly means a lot to this fanbase.

When the stage finally went dark and the band walked out, the noise in the room was deafening. The cheers from the barrier all the way to the back rows showed just how solid the bond is between this group and their listeners. Right from the first note, December 10 took over the room with a confident and heavy-hitting set. The crowd sang along to every word, pushing their voices to echo off the stadium’s historic walls.

The setlist was perfectly paced, mixing their faster tracks with slower moments that gave everyone a chance to catch their breath.

Even with the slightly rocky start at the sound desk, the night turned into a massive success for the group. December 10 proved they are a brilliant live act, and the Dublin crowd will definitely be waiting for their return.
