The official Dubliners’ stage show celebrates the music, songs, and story of The Dubliners, the greatest folk band of all time.

Created by The Dubliners’ John Sheahan with the band’s original record producer Phil Coulter as Musical Director, The Dubliners Encore is the official story of the band in their heyday. Rediscover the original bad boys of Irish music – the beards, the ballads, and the band that put Ireland on the world stage. This hugely talented cast captures the magic of The Dubliners singing all their hits, including The Wild Rover, Seven Drunken Nights, The Black Velvet Band, Whiskey in the Jar and The Irish Rover.

This new stage show packs 50 years of songs, stories, and craic, into one unforgettable night. Be part of the ultimate Irish sing-along. A music extravaganza that will have you singing your heart out and dancing your cares away long after the lights have dimmed.


The Dubliners Encore is directed and produced by award-winning industry creatives Phil Coulter, Ceoladh Sheahan, and Maurice Sweeney. Phil produced six of The Dubliners’ original albums, as well as writing some of their biggest hits. He now returns to the fold as the show’s Musical Director. John has said of Phil’s involvement,

There is no-one more qualified to steer this one-of-a-kind Dubliners experience. Phil has been part of the Dubliners’ family for decades, and he brings his immense creativity, musicianship, passion, and experience to the role of Musical Director.
