Fun and Entertaining
This was excellent entertainment. The four entertainers played multiple traditional Irish instruments. Their music and songs were very good and a nice verity. Traditional Irish dance was also performed. The location was smaller than other venues but that added to the fun environment. It was more personal and you could see the stage with good acoustics from anywhere in the room. We attended another similar event and were disappointed because it wasn’t nearly as entertaining as the “Dublin: Irish Music & Dance at The Irish House Party “. My friends and I would definitely recommend Dublin: Irish Music & Dance at The Irish House Party as a must see.

Go!!
We enjoyed our evening a lot. We didn’t do the dinner but walked there and back from St Stephen’s Green ✅✅
I suspect there is a revolving door of musicians and dancers depending on availability but if they are all the standard of last nights talent you will have a good night. They were all very good and involved the audience and kept it fun. What I did appreciate was new information. Having spent 60 years in or on the fringe of Celtic music I still learnt something. We weren’t just shovelled ‘tourist food’, though the well known and popular ones were interspersed with the unknown and the new. 👏👏👏

What a show Garry made the afternoon very special for everyone
Absolutely fantastic time the atmosphere was electric.
Garry the singer and compair for the show was brilliant he had time for everyone asking where they where from and including everyone, I was a solo traveler and it made me feel like part of the event and not left in the corner. His singing and around entertaining nature made the afternoon.
The girls dancing where very talented everyone was up on the dance floor lots of laughter and fun as we all got the steps wrong 🫣 what a great time .

Real Irish music and dance experience!
It was one of my favorite experiences on our trip! The music was wonderful, as was the dancing. A real toe tapping and hand clapping night.
