Radio Kerry’s Tog Sos strand comes to Siamsa Tire in Tralee on Friday, 11 September 2026, with presenter Mary Conroy hosting a live evening built around conversation and music rather than a straight concert. Tog Sos, Irish for “take a break,” is a Radio Kerry radio show turned occasional live event, bringing the same relaxed, chat-driven format to the National Folk Theatre’s stage with invited musical guests alongside Conroy.
Expect a mixed evening rather than a single act’s set: Radio Kerry’s Tog Sos format blends interview-style conversation with live musical performances from guests, closer in feel to a radio show recorded in front of an audience than a conventional gig. Mary Conroy is a familiar voice to Radio Kerry listeners, and the live version of the show gives the audience a chance to see the format play out in person rather than over the airwaves. Siamsa Tire, Ireland’s National Folk Theatre, is used to hosting exactly this kind of hybrid programming alongside its regular dance, theatre and music seasons, and the venue’s main auditorium gives the evening a proper stage and sound setup rather than a studio feel. The show forms part of Siamsa Tire’s autumn programme, which runs alongside touring theatre and dance productions through September and October.
Siamsa Tire is in Town Park in Tralee, a short walk from the town centre and Tralee’s train station, which has direct services from Cork, Dublin and Killarney. Bus Eireann also runs routes into Tralee from across Kerry, and there is parking near the theatre.
A night at Siamsa Tire pairs easily with the rest of Tralee, from the Town Park gardens right outside to the shops and restaurants on the main streets nearby. There is more to see in Tralee and across Co. Kerry.
