Rock for Alzheimer’s 2026
Incredibly this is the 13th year of ‘Rock for Alzheimer’s’. Previous sold-out gigs have raised over £82,000 in aid of The Alzheimer’s Society NI, featuring top local rock tributes, all of whom have a personal family story to tell in relation to Alzheimer’s. In fact, this annual event won ‘fundraiser of the year’ category of The Dementia Friendly Awards in November 2017.
We are proud to again host this event in Belfast, on the most romantic of evenings, as we aim to push towards £100,000 total raised!
AC?DC
Celebrating over 25 years together, AC?DC know how to deliver Bon Scott’s music with energy and accuracy. Their headline set highlights the wonderful music the man left behind, from the hits like Highway to Hell, Touch Too Much and Whole Lotta Rosie. Add to that Thunderstruck, You Shook Me and Back in Black from the Johnson era and you have an incredible night of AC/DC music played live by five DC fanatics.

ARMS OF VENUS DE MILO
For over 30 years Arms of Venus de Milo have been one of Northern Ireland’s premier Rock and Indie cover bands. Widely respected for their versatile and energetic set list covering five decades, they have built up a loyal and well-deserved fan base, not least among Empire regulars. You’re guaranteed not to hear the same set twice, and can expect to hear anything and everything including Guns N’ Roses, Killers, Bon Jovi, Queen, Zeppelin, U2, The Who, Stereophonics, Metallica, Sabbath, Floyd and much more.

FOYER INCIDENT
