The Pogues

The irreplaceable, inimitable Irish act have made an indelible mark on modern music with their roguish mix of stomping traditional music and drunken punk.

Shane MacGowan and the crew have spent three decades defining a new genre, and they’re bring their catalogue of classics to Australia once more.

They’ll be an integral part of Bluesfest at Byron Bay next year, alongside Roger Daltrey performing Tommy, Earth Wind & Fire, G3, Yes, Buddy Guy, Maceo Parker, and many more.

They’ll also play two huge sideshows: Festival Hall in Melbourne and Hordern Pavillion in Sydney.

Grab your tickets (and a pint) on Friday 11 November from Ticketek.
