Nenagh’s Philly Ryan’s to celebrate Shane MacGowan with special weekend of tributes
Philly Ryan’s bar in Nenagh is set to host a celebration of Shane MacGowan this weekend for the second anniversary of his passing.
The Nenagh pub that has become so associated with the iconic The Pogues singer will host tribute acts on Friday 28th, Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th November.
Nenagh and its surrounds are quickly becoming an absolute must-visit destination for fans of Shane MacGowan, The Pogues and even music history in general.
As well as the fantastic set up in Philly Ryan’s, the town now boasts three amazing murals, a tour route of the places that meant the most to Shane and a host of great memorabilia in Nenagh’s incredibly well run tourist office.
This weekend in Philly’s is not one to be missed!
