The full run of dates follows the announcement of a series of Boston shows
Dropkick Murphys have announced the full routing for their 2026 For The People…In The Pit St. Patrick’s Day Tour with The Aggrolites and Haywire supporting on most dates. The trek kicks off February 9th in Portland, Maine, and culminates March 13, 14, 15, and 17 in Boston with the band’s annual run of hometown dates during St. Patrick’s Day week.
Tickets will go on sale this Friday, October 17th, at 10 am local time. Tickets for the previously announced Boston dates are on sale now, and lineups vary for the Boston shows.
The 2026 St. Patrick’s Day weekend shows in Boston are also a celebration of the band’s 30th birthday and include a special family-friendly afternoon mini-concert and meet & greet at MGM Music Hall at Fenway on March 14th at 2 pm. This special afternoon event benefits the band’s charitable foundation, The Claddagh Fund, and each adult ticket buyer can bring two kids under 13 for free.
During the For the People…In the Pit St. Patrick’s Day 2026 Tour, Dropkick Murphys will perform two special hockey post-game solo shows: March 7th with the Milwaukee Admirals and March 11th with the Springfield Thunderbirds.
The Milwaukee Admirals concert is free to attend with a ticket to the game.
The only way to gain access to this first-of-its-kind event with the Springfield Thunderbirds is with a combination ticket package, which includes admission to both the T-Birds game at the MassMutual Center and Dropkick Murphys concert at the adjacent MassMutual Convention Center Exhibition Hall that night.
Before the St. Patrick’s Day hometown shows, Dropkick Murphys head to Europe for a fall headlining tour with Frank Turner and Haywire that kicks off October 15th in Milan, Italy.
Dropkick Murphys recently released the physical CD and vinyl versions of their latest album, For The People, which follows the album’s July 4th digital release via the band’s Dummy Luck Music/Play It Again Sam. The CD and vinyl releases include five bonus songs: “Dropped On My Head,” “Take Your Bow,” “Straight Edge (I Liked You Better),” “A Hero Among Many,” and the previously released “Sirens.”
For The People shows courage and confidence, speaking up against the injustices happening in the United States, and does so with the strength and power that harkens back to Dropkick Murphys’ earliest punk rock roots. The album is more than a title. It’s a heartfelt stance, a declaration of who this band is–and who they’ve always been.
While on tour, Dropkick Murphys have continued to advocate for workers’ rights and human rights–as they have done for their entire 29+ year career–with surprise appearances at many picket lines across the U.S. to support unions fighting for fair wages and better contracts.
