Kyle Riley: Little Folk at Lollipops

At Roscommon Arts Centre · Roscommon Town, Co. Roscommon
Kyle Riley brings his Little Folk at Lollipops session to Roscommon Arts Centre on Saturday, 3 October 2026 at 11am. It is a music session built specifically for young children rather than a scaled down adult gig, part of the Arts Centre’s Family and Creative Learning strand that runs alongside its main theatre, music and comedy programme. Tickets are €10, and the session is programmed into the venue’s autumn schedule as a Saturday morning option for parents looking for something for younger children in Roscommon town.
Little Folk at Lollipops is built around songs, instruments and movement rather than passive listening, aimed at pre-school and early primary age children with parents or carers alongside them. Roscommon Arts Centre programmes it as part of a broader children’s strand that also includes Elderberries and Songbirds sessions through the autumn, reflecting a venue that treats family programming as a genuine part of its year rather than an occasional add-on. Expect a relatively short, high energy session rather than a full theatre length show, with plenty of audience participation. The Arts Centre is a mid-capacity venue in the town centre, so the room stays intimate even with a full house of children and adults.
Roscommon town sits at a crossroads in the Irish midlands, about 130km west of Dublin and 60km east of Galway. Roscommon Arts Centre is centrally located in the town. Bus Éireann serves Roscommon town on routes from Dublin and Galway, and street parking is generally available nearby on a Saturday morning.
Roscommon town is a compact market town with a castle ruin and a county museum within walking distance of the Arts Centre, easy to combine with a morning session and lunch in town. There is more to see in Roscommon and across Co. Roscommon.
