Kodaline - Farewell Tour in Bangkok

2026-08-28 – 2026-08-29 · UOB LIVE (EmSphere), Khlong Toei / Sukhumvit, Bangkok

A two-night Bangkok stop on Kodaline's farewell run at the EmSphere arena. Billed as a final tour, so it carries last-chance weight; the Friday show's general sale already sold out.

Details & sources

Farewell tours don't recur, and a two-night arena booking with one night already sold out marks this as genuine demand rather than routine venue programming.
