IRISH artist, Imelda May, has announced her new “Raised on Songs & Stories” tour across Ireland, taking place next February 2026, with a stop in Limerick.
Set to perform in over 15 venues, all over the country, Imelda May will play the University Concert Hall on February 4, 2026.
This unique series of intimate evenings will feature new stripped back versions of her wide discography and favourite songs, integrated with her poetry and storytelling.

Explaining the inspiration behind the intimate series of shows, Imelda said “I work out which songs will flow best into another to create the vibe desired that I sometimes don’t leave much space for the unknown which is where a different magic lies. This space is the place where I exist and love most, it’s where I write and create.
“So it feels right to stay there a while. To have a gig where someone might ask for a song I haven’t visited in a while and I think ‘yeah let’s give it a go’, or where I can tell you the stories behind the songs and how I ended up working with some of the people I’ve worked with so far. Not a ‘show’ this will be a shared night of what music, art, connection and creativity means to me, with you,” said Imelda.
Tickets for the tour go on general sale Friday, October 17, at 9am through Ticketmaster and from local venue Box Offices.
