Best Five Summer Music Events In Royal Hospital Kilmainham Dublin

- Advertisement -

All the big acts come to Dublin at some stage, and this year –after the music drought of the past two years– we are really looking forward to some great live gigs. The Royal Hospital at Kilmainham is a beautiful outdoor venue for events and this year there will be some great ones to attend. The 17th century building houses the Irish Museum of Modern Art, and the gardens are a work of art themselves.

The Frames – 28 May 

Taking the stage will be the Glen Hansard and The Frames with their folky touch indie rock. The band may have been around since 1990 but they still get us rocking. The Frames are regulars at Royal Hospital and when their gig in 2021 was cancelled, they did it on Instagram.
