Where it all began in Dublin.

Step into the original home of The Irish House Party – a unique and unmissable experience right in the heart of Dublin. Born out of a revolt by top Irish musicians against the clichéd and commercial, this show celebrates Irish music and dance in its purest, most entertaining form. Now a hit touring theatre show across the UK and beyond you can still catch us in our beautiful 18th century townhouse in Dublin – where it all began. Enjoy an evening of unforgettable music, dance and storytelling in an intimate authentic setting. A pre show dinner option is also available.

Another 5 star review for The Irish House Party. Great mix of singing, music, comedic timing, and dancing. So absolutely impressed.
Bellissima esperienza.si mangia bene e ci si diverte
Spectacle épatant, avec des musiciens excellents, un danseur fantastique et un leader guitariste talentueux et plein d’humour. Je recommande vivement !
Amazingly Talented Musicians.
Great Craic!
10/10 experience!!!! My husband and I did the dinner+show combo and loved every moment. Food was delicious (app, main, and dessert). The performers in the show were all so talented and I love how they included the audience a little bit! I felt entertained the entire time and didn’t want it to end. We will for sure come back when we visit Dublin again in the future. 😊

I booked this online after reading the excellent reviews. We did the dinner and show combo. Dinner was Ok but The Irish House Party was AWESOME! Very entertaining. Outstanding musicians. Definitely worth the ticket price. Even my teenagers enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend.

An older man with white hair and a serious expression sits indoors, seemingly contemplating the rhythm of Irish music. He wears a dark sweater over a shirt, while behind him, a plant thrives near a painting featuring a geometric pattern reminiscent of Dublins artistic flair.

“We all had a great night tonight. Keep up the good work lads!”

An elderly person with gray hair stands against a plain background, wearing a dark blazer and a red checkered shirt, their eyes twinkling with the charm of Dublins rich history, reminiscent of an evening filled with lively Irish music.
