Rihanna will play Dublin's Aviva Stadium in June next year as part of her world tour with support acts including Big Sean and 2015's break-out star, The Weeknd.
Her Anti World tour will include 70 shows throughout North America and Europe and will kick off in February with the tour running right up until August.
The 27-year-old superstar last played Ireland two years ago and has left fans waiting an unusually long time - by her standards - for her latest album.
Rihanna, however, has said that Anti, her eighth album, is her favourite yet. “This is my favourite album cover I've ever done," she said according to Billboard as she stood in front of the art work on display at the Mama Gallery in Los Angeles.
