The Gaiety Panto is THE Dublin Christmas tradition. For decades, families have packed into the beautiful Gaiety Theatre for the annual pantomime, and it remains one of the most beloved events in the Dublin calendar. It’s behind you!
What to Expect
A spectacular family show with comedy, music, dance, audience participation, and the traditional panto elements: the dame, the villain (boo! hiss!), the hero, and lots of terrible jokes that somehow work perfectly. The Gaiety Panto is produced to a high standard with impressive sets, costumes, and a cast that includes well-known Irish entertainers.
Kids absolutely love it, and adults get swept up in the magic too. It’s one of those experiences that creates genuine Christmas memories.
