The Whistlin Donkeys
AUSTRALIAN TOUR 2026
Due to a medical situation that has arisen, a band member has been advised that travel is not possible at this time.
As a result, The Whistlin Donkeys Australian tour 2026 has been cancelled.
.........................
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.
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.
Statement on Postponed 2025 tour.
"Hey Folks, we have had to postpone the upcoming Australian tour which has now been rescheduled to February 2026 due to scheduling conflicts beyond the bands control. We’re grateful for your understanding and can’t wait to bring the band’s high-energy live show in 2026. It will be summertime in Australia and the vibes will be high! Please keep hold of your tickets as all shows are at the same venues. We promise it’ll be worth the wait! Thanks for sticking with us, we can’t wait to bring the craic your way then."
