Bord Gáis Energy Theatre
Large modern theatre in Grand Canal Dock hosting big touring musicals, ballet and family shows on Ireland’s largest all-seated stage.
About
Large, purpose-built theatre on Grand Canal Square with a 2,100-seat auditorium and striking glass façade. Families mainly come here for big touring musicals, ballet and family shows that you’d usually see in the West End, with clear sightlines from most seats and good sound even up in the upper circle. The building is fully indoors with wide foyers, bars and kiosks on each level, so there’s plenty of space to wait with kids before the show. It suits school-age children and teens best, though younger kids are often catered for with dedicated family productions and weekend matinees.
