Cruinniú na nÓg dlr 2026: Creativity in the Park – Irish National Opera Comes to the Park

  • Workshop

Find your inner opera voice and learn to express character through singing. The session will culminate in learning an aria, giving everyone the chance to experience the magic of opera firsthand.

Children and families are invited to join acclaimed mezzo-soprano Sharon Carty for a fun and interactive opera workshop, presented by Irish National Opera. Suitable for primary school age children, but all are welcome.

This event is part of a fun‑filled family adventure near the musical instruments at Shanganagh Park where families of all ages are invited to join us as we bring movement, music, and nature‑inspired creativity to the park.

Children have told us they wanted to take part in their local neighbourhood and parks – we have responded by programming an exciting morning. Come along and enjoy art and nature workshops, drumming and music sessions, dance workshops, and live performances by talented young local musicians. You can also catch pop‑up interactive performances from Irish National Opera and try out the musical instruments already in the park.

No need to book—just come along! A full schedule of activities, including the exact times of each music and dance workshop, will be shared closer to the day.
