Elegant venue for classical music, jazz, and contemporary performances
"The National Concert Hall, just off St. Stephen’s Green in the heart of the old Georgian centre, is one of Ireland’s National Cultural Institutions and the premier venue for classical music in the country. The main auditorium, in what was once a university examination hall, can accommodate up to 1,200 people—though perhaps its most impressive feature is the huge organ behind the main stage. Smaller recitals for up to 250 people are hosted in the adjoining John Field Room, while the Carolan Room, named after the legendary 17th-century blind Irish harpist, is occasionally used for performances and has a capacity of 100. You'll hear all forms of classical and composed contemporary music, and occasionally, you may even catch a modern-day legend like Laurie Anderson hitting the stage. But do yourself a favor, and leave the kids at home—this isn't a show they'll jam to." - Fionn Davenport
