Dropkick Murphys Announce Full 2026 “For the People…In the Pit” Tour

Boston’s Celtic punk legends Dropkick Murphys have officially revealed the full schedule for their 2026 “For the People…In the Pit” St. Patrick’s Day Tour, following the release of their politically charged album For the People. The trek kicks off February 9, 2026 in Portland, Maine, and runs through March 17, 2026, wrapping with the band’s traditional hometown shows in Boston.

Supporting Acts and Highlights

Joining the Murphys on most dates will be The Aggrolites and Haywire. The Boston run will feature Haywire as direct support, with additional acts to be announced.

The tour also includes two special “post-game” shows:

• March 7 – Milwaukee, WI – Panther Arena, following the Milwaukee Admirals hockey game (free entry with game ticket)

• March 11 – Springfield, MA – MassMutual Center Exhibition Hall, following the Springfield Thunderbirds game (ticket package includes both events)

On March 14, the band will host a family-friendly matinee at Boston’s MGM Music Hall at Fenway. The event will include a meet & greet and benefit the band’s Claddagh Fund charity. Each adult ticket allows up to two children under 13 to attend free.

About the Album

The tour celebrates the band’s 2025 album For the People, which was released digitally on July 4, 2025, with CD and vinyl editions arriving October 10, 2025. The physical release includes five bonus tracks not featured in the digital version.

In true Dropkick Murphys fashion, the band continues to pair their music with activism, using tour stops to support social causes and workers’ rights across the country.
