Limerick band amongst special guests announced for global superstar's Thomond gig

POPULAR Limerick five-piece folk-rock band Hermitage Green have been announced as special guests for one of Thomond Park’s most highly anticipated gigs next year.

The much-loved band are set to join global superstar Robbie Williams in Thomond Park on July 6 and July 7, 2027.

Also added to the setlist was English dance-pop icon Sophie Ellis-Bextor, known for her iconic disco hits such as Murder on the Dance Floor and Groovejet (This Ain’t Love).

Performing as part of his RW27 tour, the concert will mark Robbie Williams’ first-ever show in Thomond Park, and his only scheduled Irish concert for 2027.

Following the sell-out of the July 6 show, a second date of July 7 has been added to the RW27 tour itinerary due to “phenomenal demand”, with tickets currently available to purchase.

Hermitage Green are set to perform on both nights, following the band’s 15th anniversary this year.

Known for their high-energy live shows and musical blend of folk, rock, and roots, the band have built a devoted following both at home and across the globe over the past decade and a half.

Formed in the city in 2011, the group quickly rose to prominence with their dynamic sound and energetic performances.

From sold-out tours across Ireland, Australia, the Middle East, and North America, Limerick’s love for Hermitage Green has now expanded to the global stage.

Tickets for Robbie Williams Live 2027 in Thomond Park are now available to purchase on Ticketmaster.
