About this Event

Join for a high-energy, hilarious, and award-winning musical adventure that the whole family will love. Direct from the magical shores of Glasses Island—a place off the coast of Co. Clare where everyone wears glasses—this show brings nursery rhymes to life with a foot-stomping Irish twist.


About the Show

The Speks present a lively performance of classic songs set to acoustic Irish music. Described as "Riverdance for kids," their show is designed to get adults and children alike jumping, clapping, and singing along. Whether you're 2 or 92, you won't be able to sit still!
