The Stunning with some special guests are back in Limerick for a huge show in King Johns Castle this July after a sellout performance in the Big Top Last year. Tickets priced 39.50 including Booking fee are available 9am Friday March 31st from Dolans.ie and Ticketmaster.ie

In the seven years that The Stunning were initially together, they toured relentlessly building up a following that would make them one of the most successful Irish bands ever. In 1990 their debut album ‘Paradise In The Picturehouse’ spent five weeks at number one and became one of the most-loved Irish albums of all time.

Two years later, the follow up ‘Once Around The World’ also hit the No. 1 spot, and the band went on to sell over 100,000 albums in Ireland alone. “Brewing Up A Storm” has become an anthem of sorts and is to be heard everywhere from football stadiums to clubs around the country where it is still a guaranteed floor-filler.
