Matt Berninger (The National) – to headline new Kilkenny concert series, Live at Castle Mills

The baritone-voiced heart and soul of Grammy-winning band The National, Matt Berninger, brings his rare and captivating solo performance, celebrating his 2025 album Get Sunk, to Kilkenny on Saturday, July 18th for the inaugural Live at Castle Mills: a brand new tented concert event at Castle Mills, beneath the backdrop of Kilkenny Castle. 

Audiences will be treated to an intimate yet expansive live show celebrating Berninger’s latest album – a sweeping and soul-stirring record that finds him resurfacing with clarity, vulnerability and wry humour intact.

Expect a setlist spanning Get Sunk alongside selections from his 2020 solo debut Serpentine Prison and carefully chosen moments from The National’s beloved catalogue.

Berninger will be joined by special guests, acclaimed Irish folk singer Lisa O’Neill and beloved Kilkenny band Engine Alley for a night of rare intimacy with one of the world’s most recognisable voices.
