Did You Know? Unseen Westlife Facts & Fun Tidbits!

Think you know everything about the Kings of the Stool-Stand? Check out these fun facts that even some die-hard fans might have missed:

  1. They Were Almost 'IOYOU': The band actually started out as a six-piece called Six Of One, which later morphed into IOYOU (made up of Shane, Kian, and Mark, plus three others). Simon Cowell reportedly told Louis Walsh to "fire at least three of them" because they were the "ugliest boyband" he'd ever seen! Ouch! Nicky and Brian joined after a search, and the name changed to Westside, then finally Westlife due to a pre-existing band.
  2. Kian the Kissogram: Before Westlife fame, Kian Egan briefly worked as a kissogram in Ireland, apparently only wearing see-through trousers, tiny boxers, and a bow tie! Now that is a visual!
  3. Cover Kings: While they've written many of their own hits, their three biggest-selling singles in the UK are actually cover songs: 'Uptown Girl', 'I Have A Dream/Seasons In The Sun', and 'You Raise Me Up'.
  4. Mark's Foodie Side Hustle: In 2015, Mark Feehily famously opened a catering van called "Mark's Crepes" as a side project, selling crepes and coffee! From stadium stages to street food – we love a multi-talented man!
  5. Record Breakers: Westlife holds the Guinness World Record for the most consecutive UK No. 1 singles with their first seven releases!

Getting There: Your Concert Navigation Guide

Heading to one of the major residencies? Here's a quick, friendly guide on how to get to the main venues!

🎤 Dublin's 3Arena

  • Public Transport is Your Best Bet: The 3Arena is super accessible! The LUAS Red Line tram stops right outside at the Spencer Dock stop.
  • DART/Train: Take the DART to Dublin Pearse Station, then it's a 20-25 minute walk or hop on the Luas.
  • Driving/Parking: There is limited parking available at the Point Village Car Park, but expect high demand. Pre-booking is always a good idea!

🎤 Belfast's SSE Arena

  • Walk It: It's about a 20-minute walk from Belfast City Centre, and even less from the Lanyon Place railway station.
  • Train/DART: The nearest station is Lanyon Place, which is about a 15-minute walk.
  • Bus: The bus service runs regularly to and from the City Centre, stopping near the arena.
  • Taxi: Taxis are plentiful in Belfast city centre and will get you straight to the door.

What to Expect on The Setlist

While the final setlist is always a secret, a 25th-anniversary tour means they'll be pulling out all the stops and performing the biggest hits! Expect to hear the classics, fan favourites, and some brilliant covers:

  • "Flying Without Wings"
  • "Swear It Again"
  • "My Love"
  • "Uptown Girl"
  • "You Raise Me Up"

It’s going to be a night for the memory books. See you there! ❤️

A Little Irish Touch

There’s something special about seeing Westlife back on home soil. It’s not just the music – it’s the craic, the shared memories, the singalongs with total strangers, and that electric moment when 10,000 voices hit the chorus at once.

And sure, where else would you rather be?

Grab your friends, your mam, your aunties, or that mate who pretends they “don’t really like boybands” (we see you, Derek) – and get your tickets. Because 25 years on, Westlife still know how to put on a show that feels like home.
