Sat 12 September 2026
Doors 7.30pm, Starts 8pm
Tickets: £30
A stunning tapestry of storytelling, poetry and song.
With over 55 sold-out performances of Coming Home to date, Cara will bring her acclaimed show to the Irish Cultural Centre this September 2026.
Few voices linger in the soul like Cara Dillon’s. A towering figure in Irish music, she has earned global acclaim and major awards – including four BBC Folk Awards and the Meteor Award for Best Irish Female. For nearly 30 years, her voice – deceptively delicate yet emotionally powerful – has bridged tradition and innovation. Alongside husband and collaborator Sam Lakeman, Dillon has created a timeless, distinctive sound.
Their intimate live shows feature now-classic renditions of “Black Is the Colour” and “The Parting Glass,” among many others. From Óige and De Dannan to Disney soundtracks, chart-topping remixes, and Derry Girls, Dillon continues to defy genre boundaries.
As Mojo once wrote, she possesses “quite possibly the world’s most beautiful female voice”, a legacy she continues to affirm, with a voice that lingers long after the last note fades.
