    The rockers will perform at Dublin’s 3Arena on April 5th, 2016 as part of their Drones World Tour.
    Ireland is included in the first round of shows announced today to kick off their highly anticipated global tour.
    The 3Arena will be transformed in order to give fans a “true 360 degree audio/visual sensory experience” which will see them perform “in the round” in the centre of the arena.
    Muse have sold more than 17 million albums worldwide and Drones is their first album to simultaneously top both the US and UK charts earlier this summer.
    The trio, fresh from a successful string of performances at a number of European festivals, said their Drones album is more of a “return to rock”.
    “The last few albums we experimented a lot with electronic music and production techniques…On this album we wanted to spend more time performing, with more of a rock sound, more of a simple guitar-bass-and-drums arrangement.”
    Ticket prices start at €64.50, inclusive of booking fee, and go on sale next Friday, September 18th at 9am from Ticketmaster outlets and www.ticketmaster.ie. Fan club presales will begin on September 16th.

    Muse's international tour dates:
    April 5, 2016: Dublin's 3Arena
    April 8, 2016: Manchester's Phones 4U

    Ekkkkk!!!!! Thanks for that! You just made my day!

    I was only complaining to anyone who'd listen at Electric Picnic last weekend about it being WAY too long since MUSE played in Ireland!! Woohoo!!! :)

    Ticket prices start at €64.50 - wonder what price the standing tickets will be for Dublin.
    For London standing are £73 (€100) - fan of Muse but that seems excessive.

    Have been awaiting this announcement for a long time. Probably don't have the money now, may try an English show instead.

    Edit: plenty of room for second shows though, and it's in the round, that'd be class

    Doubt Dublin will be in the round, The Point just isn't suited for it

    The stage can be removed, so I imagine that's what'll be done.

    Yeah the Wednesday I'd assume, and add Manchester.

    I've never seen Muse live, feels like it's something I should get around to doing.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    I've never seen Muse live, feels like it's something I should get around to doing.

    They are one of the best live bands I've seen. They put on a great light / stage show. I was a little underwhelmed when I saw them last in 2012, but that's mainly due to the fact I wasn't a fan of the two recent albums (Resistance and Second Law).

    I know the tickets seem steep, but they definitely give you your money's worth. The only gig that's beaten them in terms of "stage show" for me is Roger Waters.

    You should. Even if the studio material is weaker, it holds its own live. Unsustainable last time was brilliant. Won't let you down anyway.


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,415 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Why does everything go on sale at the same time. U2 yesterday/Monday and muse Friday. Mite go to this. Last time I saw them was at Oxegen in 2007 and only saw half of the show

    Ah you have me half convinced :p Haven't listened to much by them since Black Holes but I feel like I've been missing out by not seeing them live. Will probably end up going by my lonesome but fúck it.

    +1... I think I've seen MUSE about 6 or 7 times. Every time I go I think; 'Ah, I've seen them so many times that they couldn't possibly WOW me again!' But they always do.

    I have to say the 2012 show was one of my faves. I didn't like The Second Law album until I saw the making of it, which gave me a great appreciation of how they put it all together. It really blew me away though, when I finally saw it live. The production/ lights and mix of old classics and new songs made it one of their best ever gigs. (Well for me anyway!)

    Can't wait for April 2016!!

    Does anyone know the price range of tickets for this? Looking towards seating, but if it's to be too expensive I'll leave it off.

    Also, there may be no second night in Dublin: http://www.ssearenabelfast.com/muse


  • Registered Users Posts: 187 ✭✭WopTittyPop


    Does anyone know what the presale code is? It says the "fan club" will get a presale code, but there is no official Muse fan club that I can see!

    You need to be signed up to their mailing list, you obviously won't get code if you proceed to sign up now it would have to have been be prior to announcement. There will be a 3 presale too.

    For Three customers, if you're registered for Three Plus you can text MUSE to 51020 and you'll get a presale code. Goes on sale Wednesday 9am

    Interesting that one.
    Page seems incomplete, and doesn't link from their main event listings. Also nothing of Belfast on the band's site or Ticketmaster.
    Does anyone know what the presale code is?
    Unique codes for each club member.

    Not sure how I feel about 360 gigs, havent been to one before. Whats the verdict?

    Looking forward to seeing them in a new setup though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 61 ✭✭torby


    blimey....just my luck...on O2 and Vodafone in our house, plus registered on the muse.mu forum too late....so if anyone is a member and isnt going to the Dublin gig.....I'd love to have your presale code....I wont be reselling tickets and anyway, from previous Muse gigs it seems you need ID and the method of payment to get into the gig...Muse are not fans of touts...lol


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 7,439 Mod ✭✭✭✭XxMCRxBabyxX


    O2 is now 3 so you should be able to get a code just fine? My code came from an old O2 number.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,309 ✭✭✭Vertigo100


    Anyone get confirmation on whether the presale is weds or thurs?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,039 ✭✭✭innuendo141


    If you don't get sorted I'd be surprised if it sold out quickly. A lot of people are broke from paying for concert tickets already this week!
