Tickets for individual shows go on sale tomorrow for the musical showcase The Road to the Great Escape.
When tickets for the festival event The Road to the Great Escape, presented by MCD, went on-sale back in December, the two-day passes quickly sold out. Excited music-goers will be happy to hear that new tickets for individual shows will be available for purchase tomorrow morning.
It was previously announced that 49th & Main would be playing, as would Dubliner Sammy Copley, Belfast-based Chalk, and Sorcha Richardson. Richardson just released her second album, Smiling Like An Idiot.
A few new acts have been added since December, including Irish natives Khakikid, Spider, and SIIGHTS.
Spanning multiple stages and locations, multiple shows will happen across the booked venues at the same time. The full schedule for the four Dublin venues is now available.
