About this event
The season closes with a gala of Verdi — choruses and arias rather than a single narrative — sung in the Wood Quay amphitheatre on the last Thursday of August. It is the biggest-sounding of the four dates and usually the best attended, so arrive early with something to sit on. One hour, narrated in English, free.
Why we picked it
A greatest-hits finale that sends readers away with the strongest single hour of free music in the Dublin summer.
Free entry
"Attendance is completely free of charge, and all are welcome."
