Incredible Experience and Outstanding Customer Service

Nicholas_M, Aug 2025
Expecting a traditional Irish music exposé, my wife and I were blown away by the incredible hospitality the band and venue showed us, and the VIP package was well worth it as well!

Captivating Celtic Culture

Diane_B, Aug 2025
Definitely go to this show if you are visiting Ireland. It’s a wonderful presentation of Irish music, singing and dancing. The musicians were outstanding, as were the dancers. We had great seats in the first elevation. There is a short intermission and the show goes for 2 hours. You can take photos and videos and have your photo taken with the dancers afterwards, if you wish. Highly recommend. Loved it all.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thanks for your lovely words Diane!

The music and dance were fantastic. Experiencing traditional music and dance was far better than I expected. I highly recommend this. I was impressed they were able to get so many accomplished artists in one show.

The performances were...

The performances were outstanding. The highlight was the Irish bagpipes- hauntingly beautiful. My only critique is that the venue should ban cell phones- they’re unbelievably distracting, and many venues I’ve been to have been using yonder or similar style pouches.

The Best of Ireland

Great show

Jeff_L, May 2025
What a fantastic show. From the world champion dancers to the world class musicians. We had a great time and the pride they have in the show is evident at every moment.

Amazed by the talent!

Everybody on stage was extremely talented! My husband and I really enjoyed the show….i highly recommend if traveling to Galway!

World Class Entertainment

Maureen_G, Sep 2024
The quality of Trad on the Prom was so much more than my sisters and I ever expected. We booked the show looking for traditional Irish music. And yes, we did get traditional Irish music, but it was all performed by first class musicians, dancers, and singers. The footwork and leaps off the dancers were astounding. The fingers of the players on the bodhran and concertina moved so fast their fingers looked like a blur. We could feel the emotion in the melody which the musician played on the Irish pipes…called the uillean)….and which he had composed as a tribute to his mother Bridget. The caliber of the entertainment ranks with that of the Chieftains and Riverdance. In addition, the staff at the venue were warm and welcoming. We had an absolutely wonderful evening and would highly recommend this show.

DEBRA_A, Jun 2024
Evon was amazing. I’ve always been drawn to watching the percussionist and her skill level was remarkable. Amazed by the dexterity and high leaps of the dancers. I could gush on and on… needless to say the artists were masters of their craft!

Trad on the Prom

Cara_H, Jun 2024
I was clapping, I was smiling, I was crying (so moved by the music) and back to clapping! The production is top notch. I highly recommend this show. Their accolades are a great reward for all their hard work they put into this show.

Talented performers

Carol_C, May 2024
The dancing, violin, drums and various instruments were entertaining. Some of the vocal performances were slow moving but overall good interaction with the audience.

Entertaining!

SuPiYun_A, May 2023
It was great to see generations of the same family as performers on the show and watching the energy of the Irish dancers!

Best in Ireland

Michael_B, Jun 2019
This was the best show we saw in Ireland. From the dancing to the music to the story telling. It was just the best and wish we could get them to travel to the USA to share the experience that so many are missing out on
