The dancing was of "Lord of the dance" quality. The singing and fiddling were great. Enjoyed the entire performance. Every seat is a great seat as the dancers move around the theater. More

It is a display of the very best Irish music and dance, well organised and very professional. A 2 hours entertainment with barely a break... All is done in a friendly, comfortable environment, and you leave, completely amazed !! Not to be missed if you pass through Galway during the summer months. More

Good 45 minutes walk from down town Galway along gorgeous seafront. Engaging Irish experience, welcomed all nationalities except British! The range of talents was breathtaking, particularly liked the drumming. An enjoyable experience - if you are in seating area a do not let them sit you under the air conditioning unit or bring your duvet. More

My wife is really into Irish music so this was perfect for her. However I was unsure of what to expect. Walking out just now I think might of been the best show I have ever seen! I really encourage you to go. Its a very intimate environment and the talent is off the charts. The two younger men dancers... More
