The Coronas at Theatre Royal Waterford

The Coronas play two intimate shows at Theatre Royal Waterford on Saturday, 22 and Sunday, 23 August 2026, part of a run of smaller-room dates the band have built around their regular touring schedule. Both nights are seated shows in the 430-seat theatre rather than the band’s usual larger touring venues, and both sold out ahead of the show dates. Tickets were priced at €42.50.

What to expect

The Coronas are one of Ireland’s longest-running rock acts, built around Danny O’Reilly’s songwriting, and this run trades their usual bigger stages for the smaller, seated Theatre Royal room, billed as “A Series of Intimate Shows”. Expect a stripped-back set that leans on the band’s catalogue rather than a full-production arena show, in keeping with the format across the other stops on this short run of theatre dates. The Theatre Royal itself is a working Victorian theatre in the middle of Waterford, seating 430 across stalls and balcony, and regularly hosts touring music alongside its comedy and drama programme.

Getting there

Theatre Royal is on The Mall in Waterford city centre, close to City Hall and a short walk from the quays. The venue sits on the city’s central bus routes, and there is public parking nearby on The Mall and at the Apple Market car park.

While you’re in Waterford

The Mall sits right in the middle of Waterford’s city centre, close to the Viking Triangle museums and the quays. There is more to see in Waterford if you are making a night of it, and across Co. Waterford.
