incredible work here!
The Fields of Éire team have pulled off the impossible and got a replacement venue for the festival, when LCC cancelled the use of the festival site, 8 days before the event.
And getting to hold the whole thing at the gorgeous Liverpool Olympia? Even better.
More details below, and contact Fields of Eire if you need extra info x

VENUE CHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT: FIELDS OF ÉIRE IS MOVING TO THE OLYMPIA THEATRE! 🚨🇮🇪✨
We have a massive update regarding our new home for Fields of Éire. As you know, our original plan was to dance together at Newsham Park. When Liverpool City Council pulled our land use agreement there at the final hour, we quickly lined up Aintree Racecourse to save the event. However, we have been listening closely to your feedback over the last 24 hours. Many of you were gutted about moving so far out of the area you originally planned for. We heard you loud and clear, and we have pivot plans in place!
To keep the festival right in the community where it belongs, we are moving Fields of Éire to the legendary, beautiful Olympia Theatre! 🏛️🎵Best of all? The Olympia is just up the road from Newsham Park, keeping us in the exact same local footprint.
You won't need to completely change your travel, booking arrangements, or local stays.By moving to the Olympia, we are transforming the weekend into a massive fully indoor festival experience. Rain or shine, the craic is 100% protected in an incredible venue with an electric atmosphere. If you need a taste of the vibes, Kingfishr absolutely smashed it here just the other week, and Irish legends The Saw Doctors have also graced this iconic stage.
🎟️ Updated Ticket & Seating Information:To accommodate the new indoor layout, tickets will automatically map to the following zones:
VIP Tickets 🌟: Automatically allocated to the Seating Areas for the best premium views in the house. There is a very limited number of VIP tickets left, so act fast if you want to upgrade!
Standard Tickets 🎟️: Allocated to the Standing Areas right in front of the main stage to keep the festival energy alive.
The dates remain exactly the same, and your current tickets are fully valid for the new venue. Thank you all so much for your feedback, patience, and massive support—we adapted this directly for you, and we cannot wait to see you at the Olympia! 🍀
