Galway International Arts Festival and Róisín Dubh today announced that legendary band The Saw Doctors will take to the stage of the Heineken® Big Top on Friday 24 July 2026. 

Following their spectacular, sold-out performances at GIAF 2023 and 2024 that left fans roaring for more, The Saw Doctors are set to ignite the Heineken® Big Top once again with their infectious mix of rock, folk and unfiltered Irish spirit. Expect a night of electric energy, huge singalongs and pure, joyful mayhem as the crowd belts out favourites like N17, Clare Island, To Win Just Once, I Useta Lover and Hay Wrap. 

From their chart-topping debut If This Is Rock ’n’ Roll, I Want My Old Job Back to the record-breaking I Useta Lover, The Saw Doctors’ songs are woven into Ireland’s cultural fabric.
