Market Place Theatre Family Super Saturdays - Armagh

What to Expect

The Market Place Theatre in Armagh runs its Family Super Saturdays programme across each theatrical season. Each event pairs a family-friendly show in the 397-seat main auditorium or 120-seat studio with post-show activities including themed craft workshops, face painting, balloon modelling, and a fancy-dress competition with prizes for best-dressed children.

The theatre’s family programme covers a wide range of styles - theatre, dance, interactive shows, and children’s productions by local and national companies. Children aged two and under may attend suitable performances free of charge but require a ticket. Specific autumn 2026 show titles and dates are announced on the theatre’s website and social media in advance of each season.
