Rest of the UK

Cara Dillon

A stunning tapestry of storytelling, poetry and song.
With over 55 sold-out performances of Coming Home to date, Cara will bring her acclaimed show to the Irish Cultural Centre this September 2026.

Few voices linger in the soul like Cara Dillon’s. A towering figure in Irish music, she has earned global acclaim and major awards – including four BBC Folk Awards and the Meteor Award for Best Irish Female. For nearly 30 years, her voice – deceptively delicate yet emotionally powerful – has bridged tradition and innovation. Alongside husband and collaborator Sam Lakeman, Dillon has created a timeless, distinctive sound.
