This Thuesday 16th Biird – Headline Bulmers Live at Leopardstown

Trad supergroup BIIRD take to the stage this Thursday, July 16th, to kick off the penultimate night of the Bulmers Live at Leopardstown series.

Bulmers Live at Leopardstown has returned this Summer with a series going all in on homegrown talent, championing Irish music and arts. Across four Thursdays throughout June and July so far, Leopardstown Racecourse has welcomed a stellar line-up showcasing the best homegrown music alongside exhilarating horseracing. 

Launching the series on June 11th was a powerful double-header from Róisín O and Shobsy, followed by inimitable alt-pop band SODA BLONDE on June 18th. July’s music racecard kicked off last week with a sunny, high-energy set from electronic dance duo Le Boom, which will be followed by all-female Irish traditional group BIIRD this Thursday, the 16th of July.

There is one further act yet-to-be-revealed for the 23rd of July, which will close this year’s series with flair.

The refreshed Bulmers Live at Leopardstown site layout features a vibrant mix of entertainment beyond the main stage, including local food trucks and stalls, the Bulmers bar and garden area, street performers, buskers, trad sessions, Bodhrán workshops and more, celebrating the very best of Irish culture.

Tickets are on sale now with incredible value packages starting from just €25 + booking fee, available leopardstown.com/bulmerslive.

As always, the performances will be preceded by an excellent card of racing and a wide selection of ticket options, including the great value ‘Real Deal’, which at €55 includes admission, a food voucher, drink voucher, and a Tote Betting voucher. There’s The Premier Lounge at €88; Summer Party in the Pavillion from €115 per person; A Suite Deal from €125pp (min 12 guests); and The 1888 Restaurant, which offers a la carte dining at the heart of the action.

Leopardstown Racecourse is only 20 minutes from Dublin city centre on the Luas green line, with dedicated shuttle buses running from the Sandyford stop before  and after racing. Leopardstown is located off exit 14 or exit 15 on the M50 southbound or exit 15, M50 Northbound. Ample free parking is available onsite.
