Cian Ducrot and David Gray have both announced summer 2026 concerts in Ireland.

Ducrot announced a Dublin concert, while Gray will be playing in Cork.

Ducrot is to play the Trinity Summer Series at Trinity College Dublin as part of his DreamShip Tour on Friday, July 3rd.

The Cork singer-songwriter released his second studio album, and second album to reach Number One in Ireland, Little Dreaming, in 2025, and performed to a sold-out 3Arena crowd.

Tickets are priced at €69.90 including booking fees and go on sale on Friday, January 23rd on Ticketmaster.ie. Bookings are subject to a 12.5 per cent service charge per ticket (max €10.50).

Ducrot was surrounded by music growing up and learned to play piano, classical guitar, saxophone, percussion, drums, violin and the flute.

He got his first breakthrough on TikTok, which led to his debut EP Make Believe. His songs I'll Be Waiting and All For You completed his journey from pub gigs in Cork to the upper reaches of the charts.

Ducrot will also play in Belfast, Galway, Donegal, Wexford and Limerick this summer.

Mastercard cardholders will have access to Mastercard Presale tickets for his show at Trinity Summer Series starting from 9am, Thursday, January 22nd, until 9am, Friday, January 23rd. Visit priceless.com/music to find out more.

The evening will also include a full set by The Divine Comedy.

Gray spent almost a decade trying to make a breakthrough, and when it happened, White Ladder became one of the best-selling British albums of recent decades.

The likes of Ed Sheeran, Adele and Hozier have all acknowledged his influence, but Gray continues to follow his own artistic path.

His 13th album, Dear Life, is out now.
