ENGLISH POP MEGA star Robbie Williams is set to play a gig in Croke Park next summer.
Croke Park announced the concert this morning on social media.
“Robbie Williams live at Croke Park on Saturday 23rd August, 2025,” the GAA stadium posted on X.
Williams last played Ireland in 2022, selling out three nights in the 3 Arena. Reformed Manchester band Oasis will also play Croke Park next year on 16 and 17 August.
The concert will form a part of his newly announced ‘Live 2025′ tour, which will see Williams play multiple concerts across the UK, Ireland and Europe.
His last tour in 2022, came following the release of his number one compilation album XXV, which includes the newest version of his 1997 hit ballad Angels.
That album marked the 25-year milestone in Williams’ glittering career as one of the world’s most decorated artists, with 14 UK number one albums, having left boyband Take That to pursue a solo career in 1995.
He is hugely popular in Ireland, with a slew of hit tracks, including Millenium, Angels, She’s the One, and Rock DJ.
A semi-biographical movie about Williams – Better Man – will be released later this year. Williams will be portrayed throughout the movie as a chimpanzee.
Tickets are due to go on sale this Friday at 10am.

Rock DJ on its own should have lead to an outright ban on performing, followed by a restraining order keeping him away from recording studios, for life. If one song has managed to capture the feeling of being stuck listening to nails screeching off a blackboard for all eternity…
@SerotoninWars: That’s a bit harsh, I don’t like it but there’s a helluva lot worse.
@Pat Barry: I’m not sure about that! Maybe there’s a handful that outscore it on the shoot me now scale, but ‘a helluva lot worse’ means entering a realm of pure musical trauma!
The cringe lyrics, naff backing vocals and THEN that rap! Shudder!
@SerotoninWars: talkin bout ROCK DJ and his making me feel alright.
@Darragh O Loughin: Shoutout to everyone feeling the work party vibes! I’m pretty sure we’ll get some Black Eyed Peas if we ask the Rock DJ. Excuse me while I turn my baseball cap backwards. I’m mad like that!
Dynamic Pricing?
@Sean O’Dhubhghaill: not sure if they are supporting. Never heard of them anyway.
@Paul Whitehead:
:-)
Nah …
It’s so yesterday!
@Padraig O’Brien: but, most things worth listening to these days are!
@Peter B (V Eight): agreed but Robbie the ego Williams isnt be of them.
@Padraig O’Brien: as is Bach, Chopin, Beatles, Elvis, Michael J, ye, 50 cents and pink. All yesterday.
Make sure you bring a sleeping bag with you, I guess the hotel gouging is under way
@James Moylan: I never bring a sleeping bag to a hotel. Usually the sheets are decent.
I remember when Croke Park in August was a sports venue.
And why is this newsworthy?
@Hunt Ley: cos it’s Robbie? A musical genius of the stature of Mozart and Ye combined. With a bit of sexy thrown in.
Nah step bk pal
I am leaving Ireland LOL
I prefer the real Robert Williams
