NEW YEARS EVE! FT Kell, The Father Teds, Ire-Ish, Scanlons Dancers
2025-12-31 18:00 - 2026-01-01 03:00
New Year’s Eve at Nortons is shaping up to be a monster this year. We’re loading the stage with some of our all time favourites and turning the pub into a full blown end of year party. It’s one of the biggest nights on our calendar and we’re going all in.
Kell are taking the 9.30 slot to get the place moving, then The Father Teds are on just before midnight for the big countdown. Anyone who’s seen them here knows exactly what that means… the roof usually comes off when they hit their stride. Once we’ve all shouted our way into 2026, Ire-ish are taking us through the first hours of the new year in proper style.
There’ll be plenty happening around the pub, plus a few surprises along the way. Expect noise, dancing, pints everywhere and that big Nortons atmosphere that only seems to appear on nights like this.
Tickets are up now – grab them while they’re about. This one always fills fast.

Whether you’re popping in for a swift match and a few pints, or settling in for the whole afternoon, it’s the kind of day that usually ends later than planned – sorry, not sorry!

Expect Guinness flowing, plenty of shouting at the screen, jerseys everywhere (maybe even a few Nortons ones!) and live music before and after to boot! No muted TVs, no half-hearted atmosphere – just rugby watched the way it should be.

If you’re planning where to watch the Six Nations, you already know the answer!

Folk at Nortons: Seán Magee Tour 2026
2026-02-20 19:00 - 2026-02-21 01:00
We’re very excited to launch Folk at Nortons with a special live show from Seán Magee on Friday 20 February.
Seán began playing traditional Irish music at just seven years old, taking fiddle lessons from Irish music legend Pat McManus. By the age of nine, he was already gigging regularly, performing in pubs and venues across the north of Ireland alongside his father. A few years later, his siblings joined him on stage, forming The Magee Family Band, who still reunite for the occasional show.
At just 14 years old, Seán won 1st place at the All Ireland Fleadh in the under-15 fiddle category – a huge achievement and early sign of the musician he was becoming.
In recent years, Seán has built an impressive solo career, touring extensively across Ireland, the UK, Europe and the USA, including shows in Germany, Spain, Amsterdam and New York City. He also spent a year touring with Rory Gallagher of Rory and The Island, playing dates across Ireland, the UK and Europe, and completing a residency at RiRa Irish Bar in Las Vegas in 2019.
Alongside his live work, Seán has grown a strong online following, now reaching over 150,000 people across social platforms, connecting audiences worldwide through his energetic performances and wide-ranging musical style.
Expect a powerful live set rooted in Irish tradition but delivered with pace, personality and serious musicianship. This first Folk at Nortons night is about bringing storytelling, energy and connection into the room – and Seán Magee is the perfect artist to kick things off.

Exclusive Irish Whiskey tasting at Nortons with Grain & Glass
2026-03-16 19:30 - 22:00
Step into the story of Irish whiskey this St. Patrick’s Day Eve at Nortons Digbeth.
Join whiskey expert Amy Seton from Grain & Glass for a guided journey through the rich and resilient history of Irish whiskey, brought to life through this curated tasting.
Discover its monastic origins and the birth of uisce beatha (“water of life”), tracing its evolution into the 19th century when Dublin’s grand distilleries set the global standard and iconic houses like Bushmills Distillery built reputations that endure to this day.
Explore the dramatic decline of Irish whiskey through war, trade disputes, and Prohibition, and celebrate its remarkable revival, preserved by distilleries such as Midleton and driven forward by innovative new producers across the island.
Alongside tasting a variety of Irish whiskeys – from approachable blends to bold single pot still expressions and modern cask-finished releases – you’ll also experience a carefully selected bourbon and Scotch, offering a unique opportunity to compare and contrast these world-famous spirits and appreciate what makes Irish whiskey so distinctive.

Learn how triple distillation, careful grain selection, and maturation shape the signature character of whiskies from the Emerald Isle. This is a celebration of Irish heritage, craft, and renaissance, told one dram at a time. Perfect for whiskey lovers, history enthusiasts, or anyone looking to raise a glass to Ireland on St. Patrick’s Day.
£25 (includes six whiskies)

Folk at Nortons: Barry Kerr - Curlews Cry Tour 2026
2026-03-18 19:00 - 22:00
Barry Kerr is riding a remarkable new wave of recognition, with his seventh studio album Curlew’s Cry shortlisted for Folk Album of the Year. March will see him on a special run of English dates: Stroud’s Prince Albert on 16 March, a featured appearance at the Awards show in Manchester on 17 March (to be streamed online), Birmingham’s Nortons on 18 March, and the Irish Cultural Centre in Hammersmith, London, on 19 March.
A celebrated composer, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and visual artist, Barry is known for work that captures the raw pulse and quiet poetry of Irish life. Originally from the southern shores of Lough Neagh and now rooted in the wild landscape of Connemara, he has carved out a distinctive voice over more than two decades of touring and recording-sharing stages with some of Ireland’s most revered performers.
Barry recorded his debut album at just seventeen, launching an international career that has seen him collaborate with luminaries such as Steve Cooney, Cara Dillon, Julie Fowlis, Lumiere, and Dervish. His compositions have travelled even further, finding new life in the hands of artists including Karan Casey, Flook, Jiggy, Beoga, Brian Finnegan, Damian O’Kane, and Kate Rusby.
An award-winning musician with a reputation for artistic fearlessness, Barry received the inaugural Liam O’Flynn Award from the National Concert Hall and the Arts Council in 2020. In 2023, he served as Traditional Musician in Residence at University College Cork. His creative curiosity continues to push boundaries-most notably in Fuascail, his meditative film exploring Ireland’s decade of centenaries, broadcast on TG4 in December 2022.
At the heart of Barry’s recent work lies Curlew’s Cry: a haunting, luminous collection of original and traditional songs inspired by folklore, memory, and the natural world. Its shortlist for Folk Album of the Year marks a powerful moment in the evolution of an artist whose voice is as timeless as it is unmistakably his own.
⭐⭐⭐⭐”Pipes and flute dip and soar with avian elegance” – The Irish Times ‘Like Gaughan and Moore, but with his own thing going on, I love this guy’. Mike Harding “Stopped me in my tracks. Could not stop listening. Stunning.” – Imelda May “An exceptional, original, artistic and enduring masterpiece.” – Irish Music Magazine
