Very dedicated musicians, but the 90-minute program was clearly too one-sided and the repetitive rhythms annoyed at some point. In addition, the sound was suboptimal stuttered and in the end at the name of the name of the actors so loud that it almost hurt. How professional and much more homogenous we looked and heard yesterday at the Celtic Steps in Killarney.

Loved it! It's a cute and captivating venue for performances, perfect for a town the size of Tralee (not meant in a condescending way!). The ambience and decor of the place with the layout of the seating has always made it a pleasure to be in.

Authentic Irish folklore, with a roster of top performers - singers-dancers. Composed of two parts of 45 minutes and an intermission of 15. It is short.
Essential to complete an overview of Irish culture.

Wonderful traditional dance theater. The predominantly young dancers are outstanding. They dance, sing and play with a lot of passion. With so many dancers I could observe the development in the past 10 years - great! I especially liked the pieces Oilean, Clann Lir, Fado Fado and Tearmann. Even the musicians with their traditional instruments are consistently good. Unlike other pure dance shows, there is also a sophisticated content here, be it from Irish mythology or history.

Warm Irish welcome to see Whistleblast Quartet. Amazingly talented group obviously happy playing their music. Easily at home on any stage worldwide with none of that stuffiness that usually accompanies extremely talented musicians.

We are so lucky to have Siamsa Tire in Tralee. It is a fantastic venue, Every seat has a great view. You could be lucky enough to see a well known artist/production or the best local talent has to offer. My recent outing was to see Romeo & Juliet by Mounthawk school and it was a 3 day/night sell out show. Being the National Folk Theatre there is a year long calendar of events for all to enjoy.

The facility is well positioned and is located in the middle of the city. However, the performances are of significantly lower quality compared to Killarney. Unfortunately, very much frequented by tour groups, so that the relatively small hall quickly creates an overwhelming feeling. But if you want to see a demonstration and otherwise have no opportunity to attend it elsewhere, you will not be badly served in the end.

Pretty theater, a worth seeing performances. Even without knowledge of the Irish language one understands the content of the action and can enjoy the dance and musical performances. If in County Kerry, you should plan a nice and atmospheric theater evening

Irish dance show performed by 4 dancing and 3 playing Irish music, it is dance and theatrical work at the same time, they do it well but if you are thinking it is that an Irish dance dance show is not like that, I was a bit disappointed, but to say They do it well but it wasn't what I expected to see.

Lovely venue with year round events. A little expensive as it's a big auditorium so they have to cover costs. There's also an art gallery which is always worth a look. You can go into the art gallery during the day for free.
While there you can pick up an event guide and flyers of different events held Kerry.
There is a meal available in Bella Bia and Finnegans restaurant at a reduced cost if you feel like dineing out before the show. Making it a full night out. Just collect your tickets and go to either restaurant. There's usually time to go for a few drinks after the show if you wish. Whatever way you do it it's always enjoyable.

This folkloric highlight is part of a visit to Ireland. Various performances are offered throughout the year. Most of the pieces are played by amateurs.
Drink an iris coffee during the break, but pre-order it before the performance begins.
