Following rumours of a summer date at Dublin's Malahide Castle, Arcade Fire have confirmed their return to Dublin in June.

The Montreal band will play the outdoor venue on Wednesday June 14th, marking their first appearance on Irish soil since their Marlay Park gig several years back.

We can expect to hear their new album before then - but while you're waiting for that announcement, you can concentrate on getting tickets when they go on sale this coming Friday at 9am. They'll set you back €69.50 including booking fee.
