Dubai is gearing up for a musical spectacle like no other, as McGettigan’s Late Late Paddy’s Party takes center stage. On April 12, 2025, the Dubai Media City Amphitheatre will transform into an electrifying celebration of Irish culture. The event will blend music, food, and entertainment into one unforgettable experience. With The Script headlining and a stellar lineup of supporting acts, this festival is set to be a highlight of the city’s entertainment calendar.
WHY THIS CELEBRATION IS DELAYED BUT BIGGER
St. Patrick’s Day is globally recognized on March 17, but Dubai has shifted its usual festivities to respect Ramadan, a sacred period of reflection and fasting. Instead of canceling the celebration, McGettigan’s has adapted by presenting the ‘Late Late Paddy’s Party’ in April. This change respects local customs while honoring Irish culture in a grand and vibrant way. The shift allows fans to embrace the festivities fully without restrictions, promising an event that feels both traditional and fresh.
THE SCRIPT LEADS A POWER-PACKED LINEUP
At the heart of this electrifying event is The Script, one of Ireland’s most beloved bands. Their hits like “Breakeven,” “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved,” and “Superheroes” blend emotion with energy, making them a perfect fit for this celebration. Known for heartfelt interactions and powerful stage presence, their live performances are unforgettable.
Adding to the excitement, The Coronas, another renowned Irish band, will also perform. Their hit songs like “Heroes or Ghosts” and “San Diego Song” deepen the Irish connection. Various artists will bring diverse sounds, ensuring every attendee finds something to groove to.
DUBAI MEDIA CITY AMPHITHEATRE: THE PERFECT VENUE
