Westlife announce five-night residency in Dublin and three shows in Belfast to celebrate 25th anniversary

As part of their 25th anniversary celebrations, Westlife have announced a special homecoming residency at Dublin's 3Arena – set to take place over five consecutive nights, from September 22 to 26, 2026.

These shows will bring the group's total number of performances at the 3Arena to an unprecedented 74 shows, a figure unmatched by any other artist in the venue’s history.

“There’s no better feeling than coming home to Dublin," Westlife have commented. "This city has been at the heart of our story from the very beginning, and to kick off our 25th anniversary celebrations with five nights at the 3Arena feels incredibly special.

"Every time we play here, the crowd’s energy is electric, we can’t wait to celebrate with you all and make more amazing memories together.”

In addition to the Dublin shows, the group have also announced a three-night run at Belfast's SSE Arena, from October 27 to 29, 2026.

Westlife are set to kick off their 25th anniversary celebrations with two sold-out shows at the Royal Albert Hall in London on October 27 and 28.

Over the course of a remarkable career, Westlife have established themselves as one of the most successful pop groups of all time – with three billion streams, 36 No.1 albums worldwide, 14 UK No.1 singles (ranking only behind Elvis Presley and The Beatles), and over 55 million records sold. They've also sold more than six million concert tickets around the world, including previously sold-out shows at Croke Park and the Aviva Stadium.

Tickets for Westlife's Irish dates go on general sale on Thursday, October 23, at 9am. Artist pre-sale kicks off on Monday, October 20, at 9am.
