Renowned for staging one of the most extraordinary live shows in the world, The Flaming Lips promise another night of dazzling colour, euphoric sound and unbridled joy in this 2026 Irish exclusive at the Heineken Big Top.
Formed in Oklahoma City in 1983, The Flaming Lips have become one of the most influential and inventive forces in American alternative rock. Their surreal, high-energy performances, complete with giant zorbs, confetti cannons and kaleidoscopic visuals, have earned them global acclaim and a place on Q Magazine’s list of ‘50 Bands to See Before You Die.’
Audiences can expect much-loved anthems such as Do You Realize?? and Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Pt. 1, alongside songs from their critically praised albums King’s Mouth and American Head.
With their unique blend of creativity, theatricality and heart, The Flaming Lips’ return to Galway promises to be one of the most spectacular nights of the summer.
The Flaming Lips are joined by one of America’s most imaginative and enduring alternative bands, special guests Mercury Rev, who are celebrated for their kaleidoscopic blend of indie rock, psychedelia and orchestral pop. Forever evolving, the band has drawn on jazz, folk, funk and electronic textures to craft what The Guardian called ‘music that pushes the boundaries of what rock means'.
