Ireland · SHOW
This is the shortlist worth sending to whoever is planning: 8 shows that hold up, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the thing to check before you commit.
A full-day trip from Dublin to Glendalough, Wicklow Mountains, a working sheep farm, and medieval Kilkenny, with a memorable sheepdog show.
“Nishad & Mike were awesome!!! The tour was well organised, the bus was comfortable and the places were great! I highly recommend this tour”
Dublin Irish House Party dinner and live music show at a Georgian townhouse, with a three-course meal and top Irish musicians and dancers.
“Very touristy, but it’s a great experience with family. My dad had never been out of the US before, and this was his favorite activity. Very talented musicians and tappers”
Dublin’s Belvedere Irish Night pairs a live Irish music and dance show with a 3-course meal in an intimate room, plus audience participation.
“Up close Irish dance and music experience! The musicians and dancers are all professionals who play and dance with passion. The 3 course dinner provided several choices for each course to cater to all tastes. The show was interactive, with audience participation in singing and clapping, and even a part for volunteers to go on stage and learn a simple dance. As a person who LOVES Irish music and dance, I was completely elated through the entire evening. Next time I’m in Dublin, we will be repeat customers.”
Up-close Irish music and dance in an 18th-century Dublin townhouse, with optional 3-course dinner and world champion performers.
“Wonderful experience - delicious food, excellent music and dancing. The event was very well organized and highly enjoyable. We loved it.”
Learn Irish dance with a live music show in a Temple Bar pub, then practice steps with locals for 2 hours, $28.
“So much fun! The music and dancing was fabulous and it was so much fun learning a dance!”
Dublin pub dinner show with reserved seating, a 4-course Irish meal, and award-winning Irish dancing plus live folk music at Taylors Three Rock.
“Great evening! Lots of fun and laughter. The food was good! The entertainers were wonderful. The only thing I will mention is the venue is not in the Dublin city center. It's about a 30 min (with traffic) Uber ride to/from. If you are going on your own and part of the tour, please factor this in. I would definitely recommend it though!”
Dublin’s Merry Ploughboy Pub Irish Night show with live music, stepdancing, and optional 3-course dinner. Doors 6:30, show 8:00.
“We only did show and that was great. Only issue is they say it's in Dublin. But it's actually a 30 minute drive from City Centre”
A funny Cork dinner theatre show with live music, two courses of local food, and a quick history lesson in one great night out.
“Amazing show. The lady’s were the perfect mix of informative and entertaining. The stew that was served was delicious and we had the perfect amount of time to eat and hang out for a bit before the next section of the entertainment started. The desert was also amazing. Overall amazingly organized and a very enjoyable night.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
