Eventfinda: Tickets for Dave Flynn – Celtic Guitar Journey – Hokitika – Eventfinda
Award-winning Irish-Kiwi guitarist/composer Dave Flynn returns to New Zealand with an exciting expansion of his acclaimed show Celtic Guitar Journey. For his extensive Summer/Autumn 2025 tour of Aotearoa, Flynn will blend familiar Celtic sounds with fresh flavours from his global travels.
From Ireland to Andalucía and Beyond
A new dimension to Flynn’s Celtic guitar style is the exhilarating, percussive sounds of Flamenco. Recent studies in Andalucía with a flamenco guitar master have inspired Flynn to bring Celtic Guitar Journey into new avenues. Connections between Irish and Spanish music come alive in the Rumba Reel, whilst Galician and Irish jigs dance in unison.
Irish-Kiwi pieces combine the beauty of Celtic music with the unique spirit of Aotearoa, offering a distinctive musical journey that blends his Irish heritage with his adopted second home.
Whether you’re new to Flynn’s music or a regular at his annual NZ shows, the 2025 tour promises a vibrant mix of new compositions and familiar favourites, including:
– The Irish haka ‘O’Neill’s March’, enlivened with a hint of Flamenco.
– Intricate, soulful arrangements of O’Carolan’s baroque harp music.
– The infectious energy of Celtic jigs and reels, spanning centuries of tradition.
Connecting continents, traditions, and generations – don’t miss the chance to experience Dave Flynn’s latest Celtic Guitar Journey around New Zealand/Aotearoa.
