Following the government announcement lifting restrictions on curfews and audience capacities, we can now confirm that performances of Disney’s The Lion King from Tuesday 25 January will take place at their originally scheduled times of 2:30 PM and 7:30 PM respectively.

Due to the lifting of restrictions on audience capacities, we are now able to release further tickets for sale. In the interest of fairness, customers whose bookings had previously been affected by the reduction of audience capacities will be given priority to make a new booking, and will receive an email from Ticketmaster informing them of how they can do so.*

Following this, any remaining tickets will then be released for sale to the general public – please keep an eye on Bord Gáis Energy Theatre’s social channels for updates on when these tickets will become available.
