Celebrate St Patrick’s Day with Irish rocker Bob Geldof at the Irish Village this weekend.

The lead singer of Boomtown Rats will be joining his fans and Dubai’s Irish community in a concert organised by Transguard Group. The musician will be singing his solo numbers and the band’s classics.

Geldof was in UAE last year for St Paddy’s Day and performed at the three-day festival at Irish Village as well.

“It’s now embedded into my head to spend Paddy’s Day in Dubai, being in a hot country and playing to a bunch of lunatics at the Irish Village,” said Geldof. “It’s great fun”

This year, on his eight visit, the singer plans on taking the Dubai Metro before his gig for the first time.

Tickets for the concert start from Dh75 and are available on timeouttickets.com
