The National Announce Olympia Theatre Performance

Those who braved the monsoon in Stradbally this past Sunday can expect much more favourable conditions when The National return to Ireland on Thursday, 2 December.

While its easy to wow a crowd of true believers, at this year's Electric Picnic Hot Press could tell the band won some new fans as well, so those hoping to attend the show should expect Matt Berninger and co to delve deep into tracks from 2010's High Violet as well as classics such as 'Fake Empire' and 'Mr. November'.

Tickets for the gig, taking place in Dublin's Olympia Theatre, will go on sale this Friday, 10 September, at 9am and are available from €28.50, including booking fee, and are available from [link]www.ticketmaster.com[/link].
