TOMORA, the new collaborative project between The Chemical Brothers’ Tom Rowlands and Norwegian artist AURORA, have announced a headline show at the National Stadium Dublin on Friday October 24th, 2026.
The pair are playing their debut Dublin gig in the Button Factory this Friday as part of Heineken Greenlight.
The pairing isn’t new – AURORA featured on three tracks on The Chemical Brothers’ 2019 album No Geography, including ‘Eve of Destruction’, and Rowlands returned the favour by contributing to AURORA’s 2024 UK Top 10 album What Happened to the Heart?. TOMORA is the natural extension of that creative relationship.
Their debut LP Come Closer is written and produced jointly by both artists, with AURORA’s distinctive vocals set against Rowlands’ production. Lead single ‘Ring the Alarm’ sets out the project’s stall – a mechanised, chaotic electronic sound that’s fresh for both artists.
The project made its live debut at Coachella 2026, with the Dublin show part of a wider European run to follow.
TOMORA have also partnered with PLUS1 to support War Child – €1.20 from every ticket sold will go towards protecting, educating, and standing up for the rights of children affected by war.
Tickets are €59.95 including fees via Ticketmaster.ie, on general sale this Friday May 1st at 10am. A promoter presale goes live an hour earlier at 9am – sign up at app.cymbal.co/p/tomora.
