Shania Twain at Malahide Castle: Set list, stage times, how to get ...

Shania Twain, one of the bestselling artists in country music history, takes to the stage at Malahide Castle in Dublin on Friday, June 28th. She last performed in Ireland in September to a sold-out crowd at the 3Arena. Our four-star review described the night as “an array of self-empowerment and self-validation songs that shove male chauvinists out the door with a boot to the butt”.

Twain’s blend of country and pop music has led to career hits including You’re Still the One, Man! I Feel Like a Woman!, I’m Gonna Getcha Good! and her biggest cross-over smash, That Don’t Impress Me Much.
