Get the hairspray out. Duran Duran are bringing their live show to The O2 Belfast on Sunday 18 October 2026, with five-piece band Pigeon in support.
For anyone who grew up with Rio on the turntable, or who discovered Hungry Like the Wolf and Ordinary World later on, this is one of the big nostalgia nights of the autumn in Belfast.
Who Are Duran Duran?
The venue describes them as “legendary British pop-rock icons”, and the numbers back that up. The O2 Belfast says the band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022, have sold more than 100 million records worldwide and scored 21 Top 20 UK hits.
Their awards include two GRAMMYs, two Ivor Novellos and two BRIT Awards, including Outstanding Contribution to Music in 2004. They also wrote the only James Bond theme to reach number one in the US. Their latest release is DANSE MACABRE, which mixes new songs, covers and alternate versions of classics.

The promoters’ terms say tickets resold outside the artist’s official resale channels or Ticketmaster’s fan-to-fan exchange will be invalid, so avoid unofficial sellers.
Getting There
The O2 Belfast is in Titanic Quarter, a short walk from Belfast city centre. The venue’s car parks have 1,500 spaces on a first-come, first-served basis, and it warns that leaving after a busy event can take around an hour. It’s a Sunday night, so check bus and train times home before you go. The O2’s Getting Here page has the travel options.
