Two titans of Irish traditional music - Frankie Gavin & De Dannan and The Noel Hill Dublin Concertina Academy —are set to grace the stage at Birr Theatre & Arts Centre.

Frankie Gavin, a prodigious fiddler who played for JFK at just six years old, co-founded the legendary De Dannan and has collaborated with icons like The Rolling Stones and Stéphane Grappelli. His virtuosic flair and world-record speed have captivated audiences worldwide.
Noel Hill, hailed as the master of the modern concertina, transformed the instrument's role in Irish music. From the house dances of County Clare to global stages, his emotive playing and dedication to teaching have inspired generations.

Together, Gavin and Hill promise an evening of unparalleled musical mastery, weaving reels, jigs, and haunting airs into a tapestry of Ireland's rich heritage.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to witness two living legends in concert.

This magnificent sculpture on Croghan Hill replaced the damaged trigonometrical point of the first map makers of the 1830's.
Croghan Hill is the remains of an extinct volcano and rises from the Bog of Allen.
Though only 234 metres high it commands extensive views of the surrounding midland counties, across the flat, low-lying expanse of the Bog of Allen.
