Peter Andre coming to Kildare!

FORMER 90s pin-up and the ex-Mr Katie Price Peter Andre is booked as one of the headline acts at this year’s ‘Summer Sessions’ at Palmerstown House just north of Naas on the weekend of 25-26 July.

The show is promoted in tandem with a similar event at Malahide Castle the weekend just before this for a sixth year and is their biggest line-up yet, featuring party icons Vengaboys as well as Andre, viral K-POP experiences, family raves, Irish Anthems Live and much more across two packed summer weekends.

Taking place at two stunning locations, Palmerstown House Estate in Kerdiffstown and Malahide Castle and Gardens in Dublin, organisers are promising their biggest and most diverse line-up yet, blending nostalgic throwback acts, family entertainment and the continued boom in Irish music culture.

With Peter Andre celebrating 30 years of Mysterious Girl, alongside performances from Sharon Shannon and Band featuring Mundy, The Whistlin’ Donkeys and a host of family-friendly entertainment, Summer Sessions 2026 is shaping up to be an all-ages summer experience with something for everyone.

Returning to the Walled Garden at Palmerstown House Estate for its sixth year, and will pack three shows across one weekend.

Saturday 25 July brings the ultimate 90’s and 00’s party, featuring Peter Andre, Liberty X, Phats and Small and Livin’ Joy, alongside DJ Andy Preston.

Sunday afternoon delivers something for the entire family with K-POP Superslayers, the UK and Ireland’s No.1 Taylor Swift Experience, Babybeats Family Rave, before Irish Anthems Live closes the weekend on Sunday evening with The Whistlin’ Donkeys, Sharon Shannon, Mundy and The Highstool Prophets.

Alongside the music and entertainment, guests will have access to a range of food and drink options on both sites.

“We’ve seen incredible demand for Summer Sessions, with over 100,000 guests attending our events over the past five years and hundreds of groups already securing tickets since they went on sale in December,” said Jessica Fagan, Sales and Marketing Director at Follow Fox Events.

“People are looking for boutique-style festival experiences that deliver all the atmosphere and entertainment of the bigger festivals, but in a more relaxed and family-friendly setting.

“This year’s line-up is all about giving something for absolutely everyone, from huge 90s and 00s nostalgia acts, to K-POP, family shows and Irish Anthems Live.” Ticketing Tickets are on sale now, with general admission starting from €39.50 plus booking fee. Children under 12 months go free, while flexible payment options through Klarna allow customers to spread the cost in instalments.

Group picnic table packages are also available, including entry for six guests and a reserved picnic bench area, giving groups the perfect base to relax and enjoy food and drinks throughout the day.
