The Boomtown Rats to perform in Mayo
The Boomtown Rats.
Celebrating an incredible legacy spanning five decades, The Boomtown Rats continue to thrill audiences with the unmistakable energy and attitude that made them one of the defining bands of the late 1970’s and beyond.
Led by the charismatic Bob Geldof, the band will perform a powerhouse set featuring timeless classics including I Don't Like Mondays, Rat Trap, Banana Republic and Looking After No. 1, alongside fan favourites from across their celebrated catalogue.
Having made history as the first Irish band to reach No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart with Rat Trap, The Boomtown Rats remain one of Ireland's greatest musical success stories. Their unique fusion of punk, new wave and rock, combined with thought-provoking lyrics and unforgettable live performances, has earned them generations of loyal fans.
Music lovers from across Mayo and the west of Ireland are expected to travel to Castlebar for what promises to be one of the standout live music events of the autumn (Friday, October 23).

Whether you've followed the band since the 1970’s or you're discovering their music for the first time, this is a concert not to be missed."
Doors open at 7pm, with the show beginning at 8pm. The event features unreserved seating and standing, and concertgoers are encouraged to arrive early to secure the best available seats.
