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 comedy in an intimate authentic setting. A delicious pre show dinner option is also available.

Authentic Irish dinner and entertainment! Very authentic Irish music experience with a nice prix-fixe meal prior to the show. I had leek and Brie pie and my friends had Irish stew and both were delicious. The show featured performers playing variety of Irish instruments to sing-along songs, funny commentary in between the singing, and excellent solo Irish-dance performance. Theatre is cozy and offers great view of the performers, and the bar is a plus for libations during the show. Highly recommend!
MissFlatlander1/04/2026Great way to experience the true Ireland, a must to see Irish House party were great, first time in Dublin for me and my friend, we are from Scotland, and the show at the Lansdowne Hotel was what you would want to experience for such a lovely friendly place as Dublin, brilliant atmosphere Gerry was so funny and got everyone involved with singing and clapping. Kieron was amazing such a talented dancer he was so quick and precise it was a joy to watch. Fantastic to find out about the instruments that belong to Ireland and to hear them being played. Overall a really good night and good fun, brilliant guys, well done.

Great fun!! This is such a fun time and a great way to immerse the family in a bit of Irish food, music and dance! Dinner, with a couple choices for the starter, entree and dessert, is in the charming dining area at the Lansdowne Hotel. Afterward, the entertainment takes place downstairs, in an intimate stage setting. Dinner was good and the entertainment was terrific, with fabulous music, good humor and dancing that was a treat for the eyes. Honestly, I could not stop smiling!
Pamela W8/20/2025Great fun! Great evening with a good laugh, singing and dancing! Better speak English well enough to be able to sing along and understand the jokes.
Lemercier-Walke... E8/11/2025Excellent Walking Tour! We had a wonderful experience on our walking tour of Dublin with our tour guide Marlene. In addition to being very knowledgeable, she was very generous with her recommendations for places to eat drink and other attractions we might like to see. She took very good care of the group and everyone enjoyed it.

The music was fantastic! The dinner was good, but the music and dancing were fantastic! If I'd do this again, I would eat somewhere else beforehand and then just come for the show.
jenniferA5891TD8/08/2025Unexpected and fabulous I didn’t know what to expect from this experience but it was the perfect length and the perfect way to end our trip to Ireland. My wife and I went with our moms and it was a blast. Dinner was delicious and then down the stairs into the intimate theatre room. The performers had great energy and they were hilarious. The best bit was I felt like I learned about the country and the heritage through the songs and the talking in between songs. Would highly recommend. Erin is a fabulous dancer! Steven was a great singer. Amon taught us all about an instrument I’d never heard of before and Declan kept the audience engaged the whole time. 10/10!

The Show
At last an Irish music and dance show in Dublin without the clichés that usually follow. Not a flat cap, twee costume or waistcoat in sight but instead, incredibly talented musicians and dancers bringing to you the sound and fun of Ireland. All served up with a delicious three course home-style dinner.
