This is a complete list of known U2 concerts that took place in Ireland in 1978. 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.

The gig was one of the lunchtime concerts which were held during Trinity Week in June. They took place as free gigs with local bands on Monday to Friday on the steps of the Moyne Building which was beside the Cricket Pavilion.
