Kneecap – to play at Live at the Marquee Cork this July

Hot on the heels of Kneecap album’s FENIAN reaching number 1 in Irish charts, it was announced today that the Belfast-Derry trio will play a date Live at the Marquee Cork on 6th July 2026.  Tickets for this date go on sale this Friday 22nd May at 9am from Ticketmaster.ie 

Kneecap return in 2026 to bend genre, language, and rules. There will be no backing down. No reticence. No cowardice. No retreat. The most talked about artists in the world are turning the page. A new chapter, new sounds, new manifestos. 

Their blistering new album FENIAN revels in darkness while bursting through the void with illuminated revery.

Following their BAFTA and Sundance-award-winning self-titled biopic, their critically acclaimed debut album, Fine Art, a Coachella performance that changed the culture and saw Kneecap centred as artists at the fore of the Palestine solidarity movement, a breathtaking Glastonbury performance, and becoming the most talked about rap group on the planet – never-mind the protests, murals, court appearances, countless front pages, relentless global media coverage, and massive shows around the world – Kneecap have resolved to do what they do best: make incredible tunes that bring thousands upon thousands of fans together to tear the place up.

Tickets for Kneecap Live at the Marquee Cork go on sale this Friday 22nd May at 9am from Ticketmaster.ie
