Great fun from start to finish - Very easy to find, the Merchants Quay is straight opposite the south end of the Ha’penny Bridge. It was great fun from start to finish. Gary the compere gets to know the audience and keeps everything going with jokes and music. The three Irish dancers do some exhibition pieces and get all the audience involved in two group dances. Two hours passes quickly and we came away having had a thoroughly good time.

So much Fun!! - So we came here while on vacation from Boston. We had two kids (aged 11 and 13) and it was wonderful. Jim the singer was fabulous. The dance lesson was so much fun. And to watch the dancers was really great. If you want a wonderful time, please come to this show! I can’t recommend it enough. We will definitely be back next time we come back to Dublin!

Great afternoon of music and dance! - This was so much fun! After a full morning of exploring the city, it was nice to sit and enjoy the show. The kids loved getting up to learn some dances. It was a great combination of watching performers, listening to music and trying some dance moves. I highly recommend for anyone visiting dublin!

Such a fun experience! - This was a very fun time! Jim was a great MC and singer and the dancers were very talented. I wish the acoustics were more clear for some of the singing, but I love learning some irish dance steps and trad music

I'm glad I went anyway. - Nice music, even if only a guitar and flute, and very short performance of the excellent smiling dancers. Initiation to dances announced lasts 5 minutes. Professional without more. Medium Warm Welcoming If you don’t take the meal with the concert, the proposed bar stools are particularly uncomfortable for 2 hours. Beer is expensive 10€,95 a pint...
