Garth Brooks will return to Ireland for two concerts in Croke Park next September, it has been confirmed.
The concerts will take place on September 9th and 10th next year, with tickets on sale from 8am next Thursday, November 25th.
In a statement on Thursday morning, Aiken Promotions said Croke Park is the only European venue Brooks will play in 2022.
The American country singer sold out five concerts in Croke Park in 2014. However, all five shows were cancelled after two were refused licences by Dublin City Council, and Brooks insisted he would perform all five shows or none at all.

Dublin City Council granted event licences for five Garth Brooks concerts to go ahead in Croke Park earlier this month. However, just two concerts were announced by Aiken Promotions on Thursday.
