Welcome to the Northside U2 Fan Festival 2026: U2BABY Live Gig.

Get ready for an unforgettable night of music and celebration for #U250

U2BABY – THE REINVENTION

Live at The Button Factory, Dublin

Saturday 26th September | U250 Weekend

As part of the U250 Weekend celebrating 50 years of U2, Welcome To The Northside presents U2BABY – The Reinvention, live at The Button Factory, Dublin.

U2BABY are widely regarded as one of Europe’s leading U2 tribute bands, renowned for recreating not just the sound and look of U2 — but the feeling of a live U2 concert. Based in the UK with international roots, they are regularly flown into Dublin for official fan events due to their authenticity, professionalism, and attention to detail.

This special Button Factory show focuses on U2’s later years and biggest hits — the era of reinvention, experimentation, and modern anthems — delivered as iconic live versions, not album copies. Expect stadium classics, modern favourites, and powerful deep cuts performed with intensity, emotion, and absolute respect for the music.

U2BABY are trusted performers for official Dublin fan parties and major venues including The Church (Dublin) and The Cavern Club (Liverpool), with festival appearances across Europe and beyond. Their performances have earned praise from fans, sound engineers, promoters, and even U2’s inner circle — with Guggi famously saying:

“I thought U2BABY were amazing — and it was much easier to get in!”

For fans who want the closest possible experience to a live U2 show, in an intimate venue where the music hits harder and the atmosphere is electric, this is not to be missed.
