Westlife have announced a “homecoming residency” with five concerts in Dublin’s 3Arena next year as part of their 25th anniversary.
The group, whose members include Shane Filan, Nicky Byrne and Kian Egan, will play the gigs at the venue from September 22nd – 26th.
The announcement comes after the group sold-out two shows in London’s Royal Albert Hall which will kick off their 25th anniversary celebrations.
Tickets for the Dublin dates will go on sale through Ticketmaster on Thursday, October 23rd, at 9am, and are priced from €80 to €369, including booking fee.

Presale for the gigs starts on Monday, October 20th, at 9am and fans can register for that here before 11am on Sunday, October 19th. People who get a presale link will receive it at 7am on Monday.
“There’s no better feeling than coming home to Dublin,” the group said in a statement.
“This city has been at the heart of our story from the very beginning... five nights at the 3Arena feels incredibly special.
“Every time we play here, the crowd’s energy is electric, we can’t wait to celebrate with you all and make more amazing memories together.”

The five concerts will bring Westlife’s total number of performances at the 3Arena to 74 shows, which is the highest number played by any act at the venue.
Westlife are also set to play three nights at Belfast’s SSE Arena next year on October 27th, 28th and 29th. Like the Dublin dates, tickets for those gigs will go on sale on Thursday, October 23rd, at 9am.
