Arcade Fire have announced an Irish date as part of their UK and Ireland tour in 2018.

The band will play Dublin’s 3Arena on April 6th next year. The performance will be “in the round”, meaning the stage will be at the centre of the venue, with the audience on all sides.

This will be the first date in the tour, which then heads to the UK for dates in Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and Wembley Arena,

The band's new album, Everything Now, is due out next week. Tickets for the show go on sale next Friday, July 28th, to coincide with the albums release. See ticketmaster.ie for details.
