Read full details
Pioneering electronic group Cabaret Voltaire bring their legendary industrial sound to Belfast for a rare live performance. Formed in Sheffield in 1973, the band—originally Stephen Mallinder, Richard H. Kirk, and Chris Watson—helped define industrial music with their DIY electronics and Dada-inspired performance art. Attendees can expect a set drawing from their influential catalog, which spans early experimental tape loops to later synthpop and techno-infused tracks.
The concert offers a chance to experience the raw energy that made Cabaret Voltaire icons of the post-punk era. Known for provocative early shows that sometimes ended in chaos, the band evolved into a polished yet powerful live act. This Belfast date is part of a limited run following the 2025 reunion announcement by Mallinder and Watson.
