Jamie Cullum announces Dublin and Belfast shows

With his sixth album Momentum released last week – four years on from its predecessor – modern jazz star Jamie Cullum is ready to hit the road once again.

The Momentum Tour takes place later this year and Ireland is at the top of his list of places to play.

The tour will, in fact, open in Dublin's Olympia Theatre on October 14. The following night, he plays Belfast's Waterfront (Oct 15).

Tickets are priced from €44.05 and go on sale Friday May 31. There is a pre-sale for people who purchased the new record through jamiecullum.com on Tuesday May 28, and another pre-sale for those in his official fan database on Thursday May 30.
