"We have been completely overwhelmed by the response to our Thomond Park Stadium show, which sold out in record time!" said Brian Warfield of the band.
"We are truly humbled by the incredible demand to see The Wolfe Tones live, and it’s an honour to bring our music to such an iconic venue. We will talk to everyone involved to look at a possible second date for Thomond Park Stadium."
The band recently performed on the main stage at Electric Picnic, which drew the largest ever recorded crowd at the festival, and also sold out three shows at Dublin's 3Arena and Belfast's SSE Arena.
The Wolfe Tones were formed in Dublin during the so-called "ballad boom" of the early 1960s, with the current line-up comprising Noel Nagle, Brian Warfield and Tommy Byrne, who have performed as a trio since the early 2000s.
