The Coronas will return to Limerick in the historic grounds of King John’s Castle to celebrate Riverfest weekend on Sunday, May 4th, 2025.
Dubbed Ireland’s hardest-working band, The Coronas have never rested on past achievements since the band formed back in school some 20 years ago. And that’s a lot to say considering three consecutive albums that debuted at #1 on the Irish charts, performances for two U.S. Presidents, 15 years of legendary sold-out Christmas holiday shows that have become an annual Dublin tradition and a worldwide fan base that stretches from their native Ireland across Europe to North America, Australia and beyond.
The Coronas have previously released seven studio albums: Heroes or Ghosts (2007), Tony Was an Ex-Con (2009), Closer To You (2011), The Long Way (2014), Trust The Wire (2017), True Love Waits (2020) and Time Stopped (2022). Their first three albums were released via the independent Irish label 3ú Records and the fourth one on Island Records, while the fifth marked their return to the independent route with the launch of their own imprint, SoFarSoGood Records, distributed by Blix Street Records. Those last three albums each debuted at #1 on the Irish charts.
Speaking at the launch Mick Dolan said, “The Riverfest weekend is one of the best weekends in the calendar, Moncrieff last year was one of the highlights of the summer.”
Mick said the Coronas are making a welcome return to the Treaty City, saying, “The Coronas are an amazing live band, and we are delighted to have them back.”
Tickets go on sale Friday, November 1 at 10 am on Ticketmaster and Dolan’s website.
