SINGAPORE – Irish rock band Kodaline will perform in Singapore on Aug 8 in what is likely to be their swansong.

Advance ticket sales for the show at The Star Theatre will start at noon on March 30.

No details are available on the prices of the tickets, which will be sold on the Ticketmaster website.

Advance sales for Mastercard holders will begin at noon on March 31 and end at noon the next day.

Entertainment firm Live Nation will begin advance sales for members at 2pm on April 1, with general sales to start at 2pm the next day.

In October 2025, the band – of hits such as All I Want, Brother and High Hopes – went public with their plans to split up after 13 years of music-making.

Fans have been expecting the band members to part ways after the release of their final studio album later in 2026, but the announcement of the split arrived on Kodaline’s Instagram page on March 23.

The band are embarking on a farewell tour consisting of multiple shows in Britain, Europe, Asia and Australia, kicking off with the Singapore show before it heads to Manila and the rest of the world.

Their final show will take place in the British city of Manchester on Dec 15.

The group – comprising Steve Garrigan, Vincent May, Mark Prendergast and Jason Boland – last performed in Singapore in 2023 in what was their third sold-out show here.

The quartet, which started life busking on the streets of Dublin, now has more than a billion listeners on Spotify daily.

In a joint statement, Kodaline said: “We are, and always will be, forever grateful for your love and support. It’s been a journey that we will never forget and we hope the music stays with you long after we’re gone.”

Although the title and exact release dates of their final album are not known, the band said: “We want to end on a high, so before we say goodbye, we’re heading into the studio one last time to record our fifth and final album as Kodaline.”
