My Bloody Valentine Announce Long-Awaited Irish Return

It’s finally happening. My Bloody Valentine have announced their long-awaited return on home soil.

Apart from a couple of sets at Electric Picnic in 2013 and 2008, the shoegaze legends last headlined Ireland 32 years ago – one year after the release of their seminal second studio album Loveless.

Now, after endless rumours and speculation in the intervening years, the Kevin Shields-fronted quartet will play 3Arena in Dublin on 22nd November 2025, thanks to Foggy Notions.

Tickets go on sale next Friday, 29th November at 10am. Sign up via mbv and Foggy Notions for presale access.
