It seems fitting that this tour announcement comes the day before St. Patrick’s Day.
Multi-platinum Irish group, Celtic Thunder, is bringing their electric, theatrical style show to the Okanagan.
They’ll be swinging through the Okanagan on Nov. 1, 2018 for a show at the South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton.
The tour is called Celtic Thunder X and it celebrates the group’s 10th anniversary, as well as their recently released T.V. special of the same name.
Singers Damian McGinty, Ryan Kelly, Michael O’Dwyer, Emmet Cahill and Neil Byrne will deliver a new ensemble of songs while being backed by the Celtic Thunder Band.
"We had a blast making Celtic Thunder X. The music choices were carefully selected to suit each member’s personality and gave us something we could really dig our teeth into,” the group explained.
“We love singing songs that are a perfect mix of traditional and contemporary Irish songs, along with the fun we have performing hit songs that are known worldwide."
Celtic Thunder has sold 3.4 million albums in the U.S. and has been recognized as Billboard’s ‘Top World Music Artists’ a number of times.
Tickets for their Nov. 1, 2018 show go on sale at 10 a.m. on Thursday, March 29 through Valley First Tickets.
