Chart-topping US band Maroon 5 have announced a concert in Dublin’s Malahide Castle on June 30th, 2026, their first time playing in Ireland since 2014. The Los Angeles band, led by charismatic frontman Adam Levine, have sold more than 135 million records worldwide over a 30-year career, and have clocked up more than 32 billion combined streams on Spotify, with 12 of their songs garnering more than 1 billion streams each.

Among the band’s best-known hits are This Love, Sugar, Girls Like You, She Will Be Loved, Moves Like Jagger and One More Night. The band formed in high school in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers, and in 2001 they added guitarist James Valentine to their line-up, renaming themselves Maroon 5. The band’s indie-pop sound has evolved over the years, with dance, hip-hop and R&B influences bringing their music to wider audiences. The band have had hit collaborations with several artists including Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion, Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna and Lil Wayne.

In August, the band released their eighth studio album, Love Is Like, which received poor reviews, including from The Irish Times.
