Hothouse Flowers

NEW SHOW ADDED DUE TO DEMAND

Renowned for their explosive blend of rock ‘n’ roll, Irish folk and American gospel, Ireland’s legendary Hothouse Flowers, are set to return to Australia for the first time in 20 long years for a highly anticipated tour in February 2026. The Dubliner's passionate fusion of rock, folk and gospel has captivated audiences worldwide for the last four decades. From their humble street performing roots in Dublin to global stages, the band continues to deliver electrifying performances that blend cultural storytelling and raw musical spirit with spontaneity and soulful energy.

After winning the Street Entertainers of the Year award in 1985, the band caught the eye of U2’s Bono, leading to a record deal with PolyGram. Their 1988 debut album, People, topped the Irish charts and hit number two in the UK, establishing them as a captivating live band with a dedicated global fanbase. The album features their highest streaming single to date, the utterly sublime, Don't Go.

‍Home followed in 1990 and featured the band’s gorgeous cover of the Johnny Nash classic, I Can See Clearly Now, which was given a new lease of life and used to stunning affect in the opening scene of 2016's Jeremy Clarkson's Grand Tour TV show. Watch the incredible intro here. Home along with 93’s Songs From the Rain cemented the bands place as one Ireland’s greats. The Australian tour follows the release of their latest album, Let’s Do This Thing (2020)

Known for their unpredictable energy and impromptu improvisation, every Hothouse Flowers show is unique experience. From rock anthems to soulful ballads and traditional songs that evoke the emotional weight of Irish storytelling, the band’s performances are a journey through musical and cultural landscapes. Their shows are marked by humour, raw expression and a deep connection with audiences, making each gig a one of a kind event.

Don’t miss one of the most celebrated returns of the year!
