Dec Pierce’s Block Rockin Beats returns to Limerick to mark 30-year milestone

DEC Pierce’s Block Rockin Beats will return to Limerick as part of the Docklands festival next summer.

Block Rockin Beats is a live stage performance version of Dec Pierce’s radio show of the same name on Today FM, featuring "the world’s biggest dance anthems".

The set will include tracks from Underworld, Faithless, The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, and more, featuring a full live band and special guests.

2025 marks 30 years since Dec Pierce first began his journey as a DJ in 1995. To celebrate this milestone, Block Rockin Beats will embark on the 95-25 Tour, with shows in Cork, Galway, and Limerick during the summer of 2025. 

These gigs will feature dance tracks close to Dec’s heart that were "massive" across those three decades.

“The show is all about energy—it’s a concert, but we want you to lose yourself for a few hours. We want you to go back in time to experience these classic anthems with a full live band. It’s a unique music and visual experience. Honestly, it’s the most fun I’ve ever had on stage. The crowds we get at our shows come out for a party! When our energy matches the energy in the crowd… it’s a really special thing!” Dec explained.

Speaking at the launch, Mick Dolan said: “Dec's shows are electric, his performance last year was one of the highlights of the calendar”, adding that the show is "not to be missed”.

The concert will take place on Saturday, August 16.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, November 1 at 10am from Dolans.ie and Ticketmaster.ie.
