The Whistlin’ Donkeys

After two sold-out tours and a tidal wave of fan support, The Whistlin’ Donkeys are making their

much-anticipated return to Australia for a third national tour, hitting stages across the country this

February 2026.

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.
