The Sessions have packed venues across Ireland over the years, bringing Irish music fans the best rising bands, the coolest acts of the moment and the bone fide stars, all up-close and personal. It’s been an incredible journey with some of the country's hottest acts playing to thousands of fans all over the country.

As always, there’ll be a host of incredible new acts and we’ll also welcome back some Freezer Sessions favourites such as The Minutes and HamsandwicH. The party kicks off on Friday November 14 in Monroe's Live, Galway before hitting the road and taking in Brubaker's, Dundalk (Thursday November 20), Cork's Crane Lane (Thursday November 27) and The Button Factory, Dublin (Thursday December 4).

A slew of acts are lined up to play across the country including The Minutes, HamsandwicH, R.S.A.G., Keywest, Vann Music , Rainy Boy Sleep, The Statics, Oh Boland, Valentino Is Dead, The Careers and the Freezer Sessions 100th band, Rackhouse Pilfer. Presented by Hot Press, each gig is an invite-only event – fans can simply get their free tickets here. What's more – all those attending the gigs will receive the FREE Freezer Sessions album, featuring the acts playing at the gigs across the country! Check out the full breakdown below.

This year will be bigger and better than ever as Hot Press and Jägermeister celebrate the 100th band to play at the Sessions. That honour goes to Sligo-based Americana experts, Rackhouse Pilfer, as chosen by you, the voting public. The Sligo band will play at the Dublin gig, which will bring the curtain down in celebratory style on this year's Sessions. The line-up for the Dublin event will be announced soon and promises some very special guests...
