The ’90s alternative pop trio Saint Etienne have announced their last live tour of the UK and Ireland.
Saint Etienne will play 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin on Tuesday 22nd September 2026.
It’s part of the band’s final farewell tour across the UK and this one Irish date, as per below.
Saint Etienne’s first ever live performance was on November 15th 1990 at Heaven nightclub in London just a few months after the release of their debut single ‘Only Love Can Break Your Heart’. Although the band haven’t been the most prolific live act over the last 35 years they’ve played most major festivals around the globe and visited more countries than Bob Stanley, Pete Wiggs and Sarah Cracknell can count on their combined fingers.
