The Prodigy – return to Irish shores with very special guest Carl Cox for shows at The SSE Arena Belfast & Dublin’s 3Arena

The legendary Electronic Punks return to the UK & Ireland in April 2026 with very special guest Carl Cox.

The World Heavyweight Champions Re-unite for a tour of straight up ruckus that sees The Prodigy blast through their headline set, performing tracks from across their 7 UK number one albums, along with Carl Cox returning to his genre breaking 3 deck vinyl setup for a 2 hour set from doors each night.

The announcement comes just ahead of The Prodigy’s highly anticipated and emotionally charged return to Glastonbury, their first performance at the festival after canceling in 2019 shortly after the sad passing of Keith Flint. This will be their fourth performance at the festival, bringing the weekend to a close on The Other stage on Sunday. 

This is just one of the key festival headline shows across the world this summer, from the Californian desert at Coachella through to Tokyo stadiums at Summer Sonic.

The Prodigy’s Liam Howlett had this to say:
“We’re bringin back that full experience of non-stop noise and beats from doors to getting chucked out. It
will be that full Prodigy ruckus as it was then and how it continues to be now… and droppin’ new
tunes for the people…
We’ve got our old friend Carl joining us so expect full attack mode, factor 9…
Let’s go !” LH & M

Carl Cox added:

“I love working with these guys and it’s such a long time since I have. They knew me that last time I was out playing 3 turntables, and the type of music I was playing was hardcore rave music, so that’s what I’m going to be doing, playing that sort of sound and into the new skool, I’m really looking forward to it, so here we are Carl Cox and The Prodigy back again to rip up the dance floors”.
