Steeply tiered seating means no bad seats. Fantastic 2 hours!! This is a not to be missed experience!

Enjoyed a wonderful evening of Irish music and dance. The artists are very talented. The performance left me wanting more! I highly recommend this for an evening of entertainment if you are visiting Galway in June.

Some in our group loved the experience others thought it was overpriced and light on dancing. We did the VIP seats which had great view however seats were too close together. Large people next to us took half our chair. The swag was underwhelming and one person got a book and that was it! I’d rather have cheaper seats option and no swag in VIP section.

Wasn't sure if this was "too touristy" or worthwhile but since we hadn't had a chance to listen to much music we went. Let me say the musicians were world class, the music/instruments traditional Irish, but also a bit of musical history. The dancers excellent and world champions too. From someone who appreciates bluegrass, country, and all, we were impressed. The only slight disappointment was we paid for VIP seating and what we got was a cd and SWAG- not preferred seating.

This was a great.show with top notch musicians and dancers. Energetic, delightful entertainment for the whole family

2-hour program of Irish music and dancing. Talented musicians and dancers. Our favorite parts were the dancing and watching the percussionist (she was extremely versatile and played multiple instruments). The violinist was talented but after awhile it was hard to tell one song from another. They featured all the instrumentalists except the excellent piano player (it would have been nice to hear one song with him as the focus instead of him always in the background). The male vocalist was the weakest part of the program (voice a bit wobbly and thin). The dancers were amazing!

The show was wonderful. We especially enjoyed the ‘Guinness’ Pipes, the dancing was very good as was the 3 course meal prior to the music.

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!

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!
Barry_C, Jul 2025
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.
April_G, Jul 2025
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.

It was great fun. Here visiting family, husband recently became Irish citizen nice to connect with his culture.
Krystyn_M, Jul 2025
Trad on the Prom is a wonderful opportunity to see how Irish music is a living thing that is beloved by musicians and audiences the world over.
Maureen_B, Jun 2025

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.

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

Cindy_M, Jul 2024
Traditional Irish music, song &dancing at its best

A very enjoyable evening
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!
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.
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.
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!
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
