‘Dirk Powell is the greatest old-time banjo player alive…’ Steve EarleOne fine day, Dirk Powell (‘the greatest old-time banjo player alive’) met up with Irish actor Brendan Gleeson on the set of Cold Mountain, the Oscar-winning movie.

Their shared love of music passed down by their grandfathers has grown into an exciting exploration of American Old Time, Cajun and traditional Irish music.

Dirk & Brendan join Michael & Francis for an unforgettable music experience.

SING ALONG WITH SONNY – Sonny Knowles in concert with special guests Sil Fox & Charm.

Sonny Knowles is one of those rare Dublin personalities whose popularity with the ordinary man & woman knows no bounds.

He’s a truly special talent now entering his 6th decade as a major performer on the Irish music scene.

Sonny’s ability to take a song and make it his own is legendary.

Sonny invites his Pavilion audience to join him with special guests in an evening of sheer enjoyment.

The Slap was one of the most talked about and controversial books of recent years. Now Australian author Christos Tsiolkas, who says there’s tameness about the modern novel, returns to Pavilion with Barracuda – an astonishing new book that’s anything but tame.

When talented swimmer Daniel Kelly experiences meltdown, he begins to destroy everything.

Extraordinary and powerful …welcome back Christos …
