Riverdance - The Gathering the Longest Line
Join the stars of Riverdance including ‘First Lady’ Jean Butler in this exciting event at noon on Sunday 21 July. We hope to gather at least 1,000 people to line up along the banks of River Liffey in Dublin to break the world record. Together, we’ll all put on our dancing shoes and try to beat the record held by Nashville, Tennessee, USA to bring it home to Dublin. All you need is basic Irish dancing abilities, so sign up now to be part of this unforgettable gathering.

Riverdance - The Gathering at the Park
Riverdance will take over Merrion Square in Dublin on Saturday 20 July for a day of music and dance for all. This free, family-friendly event will include a very special céili led by Riverdance’s top talent. The day will conclude as the show’s best musicians play live to a specially edited highlight reel from the 19-year history of Riverdance.
Riverdance - The Gathering Masterclasses
If you’re an Irish dancer, this is the gathering event for you. For the first time ever, Riverdance’s stars will teach a series of masterclasses for young and aspiring dancers from around the world. From 15 to 19 July, they will come together to hone their skills with the pros and learn about other aspects of a successful career in Irish dance. We have been delighted with the standard of applications for the first 50 places on the Riverdance – The Gathering Masterclass Series and we’re aiming to be in touch with the successful 50 by May 6th to let them know that they have been selected. Due to the standard and level of interest for the first 50 places, we have decided to add a further 25 and we’re extending the deadline for applications to May 31st 2013. So if you missed the April 26th deadline, you’ve got a second chance! You can apply online now – go ahead and be part of it!

Riverdance - The Gathering at the Gaiety
Riverdance – The Gathering will come to an end with two special performances at the Gaiety Theatre on 21 July to celebrate 10 seasons of the world-renowned production. There will be many special guests including Jean Butler and Riverdance co-founder Moya Doherty, so it will no doubt be a show to remember. Tickets are limited and only available through tour operator special packages.
