03/01/1979 McGonagle’s, Dublin, Ireland

This is a complete list of known U2 concerts that took place in Ireland in 1979. These dates do not include the dates U2 played in London on the U2-3 tour. I have spent many hours trawling the Irish Newspaper Archive, The Dublin Library and talking to those that were there, too make this the most complete document of U2’s early career. This site would not be possible without them, the Dublin Library & the Irish Newspaper Archive.
