There are lots of videos on YouTube of Celtic Woman performing…I think it’s mainly the venues that enforce such policies rather than CW themselves. At the show I went to, security kept on going up to people because they were filming.

I’m mainly extremely curious about the setlists. I might make myself begging people who go to tell us the setlists my signature on here 😭

I think this time around I'm as more interested in seeing the dresses and seeing Kate up there! Boy we sure waited a long time for this, it's even more interesting because the Celtic Woman tour opens up with not only a new member but a new violinist. When Tara first appeared it was half through an international tour which made it different. This on the other hand hypes the opening of a tour big time! I can imagine how it must feel everything entirely new lol! ;D  ???

I found a photo showing their dresses on Instagram (ignore the YouTube video in the bottom corner  :P) Shout out to Kenny Uong for posting it!

I’m not that fond of the gowns, personally. They look kind of sad and the blue looks too dull. My favourite is probably either Mairéad's or Caitríona’s. I don’t like the texture of Muirgen’s and Kate’s is too basic.

So I found another picture that Caitríona posted of their dresses…they’re much less cohesive than the previously mentioned gowns, but they’re also a lot prettier…my assumption would be that these were the first act outfits?

I guess my main complaint would be the aforementioned lack of cohesion…they’re all very clearly store bought, which isn’t necessarily bad, in fact, my favourite ever dresses were store bought (the 2024 symphony tour dresses if you’re wondering), but Caitríona and Kate are wearing dresses in a very different blue family than Mairéad and Muirgen. I do think Caitríona’s dress is absolutely beautiful and the others are decent as well, but the budget was certainly cut quite a bit and it shows…I’m worried…

Then again, I could very easily be too negative…I think my biggest issue is that Muirgen’s dress should have been greener (honestly a completely different design would have worked better because although the design is cute, it’s not really giving off performing energy) and Kate’s a lighter colour or less green. Maybe some details on as well so she’s not the only one without? I think that the designs are all so different is also jarring to me as well...Caitriona's and Mairead's are fine, but Muirgen's and Kate's seem a bit too plain in comparison. I do like the brighter colours, though! The second act ones are far too muted.

It’s official, CW should hire me as their new designer  :P

Your provably referring to Act 2 dresses or Act 1?

Act 1 I was so joyous, the Ocean Vibe and Muirgens there happened to be one of my favorites as it had a sort of painting esque palette!

Aww yes! now I see what you mean.
Whenever I see a new cast photo or poster representing the tour it usually gives us a glimpse as to what they'll be wearing for example 15th Anniversary Celebration Tour when they did the photoshoot with Eabha. So seeing the New Era Tour Poster Image I sensed already the dresses would be so, I was almost curious and had mentioned if Muirgen was going to have her 20th Anniversary Dress except in a new color.

I suppose they may save for more staple signature dresses for the next CW Special. Now also would the dresses here and color tone represent something in particular, the seas of Ireland etc Isle of Hope Tour was the flags of America and Ireland, but I'm sure Star's would say those dresses were stunning.

I thought I heard the CW original dress designer Synon was back so I was curious to see if the looks would of returned to a classic CW style as before but so far they are looking like they did on the 20th Anniversay.

I was referring to what I thought were the Act 2 dresses, turns out they were the Act 1 dresses (the monochrome ones)...Muirgen's kind of looked like a wallpaper to me if I have to be honest 😭 and the colour just looks too muted to me...it gives off more of a fancy work event or distant cousin's wedding feel than a performer one...the second act colouring was much more to my liking.

Then again, to each their own, and the dresses being durable for performing is what's most important...

Okay so the bright Ocean colors were Act 2. Okay so my compliments were for Act 2.
I have not seen Act 1 yet, but when I saw they were all dark blue it didn't surprise me because of the promo image of The New Era Tour!
It does give off Homecoming Vibes which I wasn't fond of vs the Voices of Angels dresses!😭

It's very interesting how since the 20th they went with darker dresses Act 1 with lighter Act 2.

I think Synan was just there for the 20th...these dresses look more store-bought to me.

You bring up a good point with what these dresses could represent. I looked up the psychology of blue and found that it can mean tradition...this is most likely a leap, but maybe the muted blue is meant to symbolise tradition and the brighter blue the future, representing the old meeting the new?

It also reminds me of the Destiny dresses and the second act gowns also remind me of the Destiny album cover. Between this and them bringing back Tir na nOg, it seems like we're getting a fair amount of callbacks to back then.
I don't think I've actually seen the Isle Of Hope dresses...were those the flamboyantly coloured ones with the bright blue and orange and whatnot? I thought those were supposed to represent the rainbow.

I like the blue-green palette for Act 2. And I actually do agree with you on Muirgen's dress. I think my brain kept autocorrecting the secondary colour to black and that was warping my perception. The dress also looks a lot better when she's performing and dancing.
