Legendary Ocean Colour Scene have just announced a highly anticipated headline show at Belfast's iconic Ulster Hall, scheduled for Saturday, 26th April 2025.
Tickets for the event go on sale on Friday, 4th October at 10am, and fans are sure to be eagerly snapping them up for what promises to be an unforgettable night of music and nostalgia.
Known for their electrifying live performances, Ocean Colour Scene (OCS) have built a reputation for creating an atmosphere of pure joy and connection with their audience. Their concerts are communal celebrations where the crowd becomes part of the experience, belting out timeless anthems that have become a soundtrack for a generation. Expect an evening filled with massive sing-a-longs to some of their biggest hits, including the unforgettable "The Riverboat Song."
Having stormed the charts in the 1990s, OCS cemented themselves as one of the most successful and beloved bands of their time. Their discography boasts three Top 5 albums—Moseley Shoals (1996), Marchin' Already (1997), and One From The Modern (1999)—as well as an impressive run of nine consecutive Top 20 singles. With a total of seventeen Top 40 singles and six Top Ten hits, their place in modern rock history is undeniable.
Fans in Belfast will be treated to a setlist brimming with classics from across their illustrious career, as the band continues to showcase the influences that shaped their distinctive sound—soul, folk, and blues. OCS are no strangers to sharing the stage with legends; in 2018, they toured with none other than Martha Reeves and The Vandellas. Reflecting on the experience, frontman Simon Fowler said, "We couldn’t quite believe that Martha Reeves was supporting us, it seemed absurd. But our crowd loved it, she went down really well."
The Belfast date is part of a wider Irish tour, with other shows lined up at Limerick's Milk Market on 22nd April and Dublin’s 3Olympia Theatre on 24th April. With their reputation for rip-roaring live shows, the band’s return to Northern Ireland is guaranteed to be a must-see for longtime fans and new listeners alike.
Make sure to mark Friday, 4th October in your calendar, as tickets for this unmissable concert go on sale at 10am.
