The Whistlin’ Donkeys Announce Third Australian Tour September & October 2025
After two sold-out tours and a tidal wave of fan support, The Whistlin’ Donkeys are making their much-anticipated return to Australia for a third national tour, hitting stages across the country this September and October 2025.

Hailing from County Tyrone, Ireland, The Whistlin’ Donkeys have carved out a fierce following with their signature blend of traditional Irish folk and high-energy Celtic rock. Their explosive live shows, filled with pounding rhythms, soaring fiddle lines, and singalong anthems, have made them one of Ireland’s most in-demand live acts — and an unstoppable force on Aussie soil.

Following the success of crowd favourites like “Bees Wing,” “South Australia,” and “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” along with their powerful recent single “When The Ship Comes In,” the band is back with a fresh set, new energy, and a bigger production than ever before.

2025 Australian Tour Dates:

Friday 26 September – The Triffid, Brisbane
Saturday 27 September – Metro City, Perth
Wednesday 1 October – Mayberry, Darwin
Thursday 2 October - Lion Arts Factory, Adelaide
Friday 3 October – Croxton Bandroom, Melbourne
Saturday 4 October – Roundhouse, Sydney

Whether you're a die-hard fan or discovering them for the first time, this is a show that promises to be loud, lively, and unforgettable.
