Ireland's National Opera House

A state-of-the-art auditorium tactfully inserted into a dense, historic urban plan; a “secret gem” tucked away behind a reinstated street-front. Lighting bridges within the room, precision-crafted to be shown off, like the bridges of a stringed instrument. Stage and forestage layout and technology allow the presentation of six different performances in a three day c

ycle. Excellent sight-lines, optimised for performance on the forestage, in accordance with the Wexford Festival Opera tradition. Horseshoe-shaped balconies, where the audiences in the upper levels are brought into better contact with the stage, enhance the performance experience for audiences and performers alike. This layout, which was largely abandoned in 20th Century design, enhances the atmosphere by populating the side walls of the auditorium, making the audience more ‘visible’ to itself. The operational flexibility given by the orchestra pit lifts, and the stage and backstage facilities, together with the horse shoe-shaped balconies, arguably qualify National Opera House as Ireland’s first fully-specified purpose-built opera house.

Get your Tarten On! The Bay City Rollers are coming to take you back in time to the carefree days of the 1970s, when Scotland’s original boy band ruled the charts and sparked a movement fondly remembered as Rollermania. Their tartan scarves, infectious pop melodies, and youthful energy defined an era and made them one of the most beloved groups of their time.
