A limited number of extra tickets will be released for Zach Bryan's concerts at the Phoenix Park on Friday, June 20th, Saturday, June 21st and Sunday, June 22nd.

Support acts were also announced on Wednesday for the three concerts which will see Bryan perform in front of 180,000 people. Bryan will play for 60,000 fans each night.

Turnpike Troubadours and Noeline Hofmann have been announced as support for the Phoenix Park gigs.

The extra tickets will go on sale on Friday, March 21st at 9am on ticketmaster.ie.

Grammy Award-winning Bryan, from Oklahoma in the United States, has risen to the forefront of country music with what has been described as a once in a generation voice.

The last artist to play a concert in Phoenix Park was Ed Sheeran in 2018 as part of the Divide tour, while artists and bands who played there in previous years include The Killers, Robbie Williams, Snow Patrol, The Stone Roses, and Kanye West.

Of course, Pope Francis also gave Papal Mass at Phoenix Park in August 2018. Bryan's last concerts in Ireland were in April 2023 at The Helix, which has a capacity of just under 2,000.

This is large contrast to the Phoenix Park venue, which has hosted some of Ireland's biggest concerts - with Robbie Williams' 2003 show at the venue setting the record for the biggest open-air concert ever held in the country.

The popstar - who will play Croke Park in August 2025 - sold 135,000 tickets to the concert.
