Fresh off the float after leading the World Series victory parade for their hometown Boston Red Sox, Dropkick Murphys have announced the dates for their 2019 St. Patrick’s Day Tour. This yearly sold out run of shows celebrates the band’s Celtic folk influence and is attended by fans from around the world. The tour launches February 17 in Poughkeepsie, NY and brings the band back to Boston, MA for four hometown performances (March 14, 15, 16, 17) during St. Patrick’s Day week.
On March 16, Dropkick Murphys — Micky Ward St. Patrick’s Day Blowout — Live In Lowell, MA at Tsongas Center will feature two shows: a Dropkick Murphys matinee show with special guests including The Devil Makes Three, and an Aftershow Party featuring Professional Boxing and a Dropkick Murphys special electric set including covers, special guest vocalists, and fan karaoke. For those attending the full day of festivities, there will be an outdoor carnival between shows with food, beer, a bounce house and a dunk tank. Three ticket options will be available: Matinee concert ticket, Night show + boxing, and Matinee/Night 2-show combo ticket.

Ken Casey, Dropkick Murphys‘ vocalist / bassist / founder, said, “Pack up the van (okay, okay, it’s a bus), we’re rolling again and looking forward to bringing the party to your town this February and March 2019. It’s our favorite time of year to play for the best, most dedicated fans on Earth. God bless you all. We promise to leave it all on the stage again this time around!!!!”
