‘No Other Act Will Do It Again’: A Look At Westlife’s 65 Shows At The SSE Arena, Belfast

Westlife – Nicky Byrne, Kian Egan, Shane Filan and Mark Feehily – is Ireland’s most successful boy group. Formed in 1998, they rose to fame with their self-titled debut album in 1999.

Their impressive career includes 36 number-one albums worldwide, and a collection of awards including one World Music Award, two Brit Awards, four MTV Awards, and four Record of the Year Awards.

Westlife sold over 55 million records to date, and are the only band to have their first seven singles enter the UK chart on number one. Their incredible 14 number-one singles in total place the band only behind Elvis Presley and The Beatles.

Westlife are considered one of the quintessential boy groups in most of the world. The U.S. never really caught the bug, though, and they only embarked on their first ever North American run last year, and only for a total of six shows.

They performed three concerts at Meridian Hall in Toronto, ON, March 11-13, 2024, moving 9,340 tickets and grossing $545,625 in the process. Their March 14, 2024, performance at MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston, MA moved 4,131 tickets at a $321,692 gross, according to the box office report submitted to Pollstar.

March 16 that year saw Westlife visit New York, NY, for a performance at Radio City Music Hall, where they sold 5,937 tickets and grossed $530,806. Their last U.S. performance to date took place March 18 at Chicago Theatre, grossing $270,283 on 3,463 tickets.

Westlife are repped by CAA worldwide.
