ABBAESQUE Live @thevenueathlone Saturday 27th July
Having the time of their lives!
@abbaesque1 are undoubtedly Ireland’s number one tribute show to ABBA ever! Their success over the past 27 years has been phenomenal making them without question Ireland’s most successful tribute show performing in excess of 150 sell out concerts each year.
Previously Headlining Dublin’s 11000 capacity three area on New Year’s Eve in 1998 and playing Saturday night residencies in the capitals prestigious Olympia theatre demonstrates the level of success enjoyed by this spectacular show. ABBAESQUE have also performed at all of Ireland’s major festivals including the internationally renowned Rose of Tralee festival playing to ecstatic crowds of more than 10000 people per night.
In May 2014 ABBAESQUE were honored to be asked to appear on national television by RTE’s The Late Late Show to pay homage to Abba who were celebrating their 40th anniversary of winning the Eurovision song contest. Most recently being asked to join with the RTE Concert Orchestra to perform the music of ABBA in the National concert hall has been ABBAESQUE most treasured engagement to date!
It’s the combination of energy and excitement together with a great night of up tempo entertainment that make ABBAESQUE the definitive ABBA tribute show to choose for your next event………

3 BUCKS LEFT
We are delighted to announce @3bucksleft will bring their amazing live show to @thevenueathlone Saturday 31st August
3 Bucks Left is a spin-off of County Mayo’s own Hardy Bucks and was created by childhood friends and total, utter piss takers.
This Satire is laden with comedy and pathos throughout, inspiring many other acts in its wake. Now a decade later, it remains one of Ireland’s favourite comedy shows.
It’s been a wild ride of ups and downs. Crude, lofty, self-deprecating introspection, coupled with rowdy philosophies.
Such misadventures are not for the faint of heart. Ruggedly charming, extremely funny riding close to the wind.
Expect lots of laughs and maybe some Creamy Pints.

It’s the post-apocalyptic world. There’s only one contraceptive pill left. Do you give it to your 19-year-old daughter or keep it for yourself? Is it better to be a 40-year-old grandmother or a 40-year-old new Mum. These are the dilemmas facing Emma Doran aged 39 and 7/8’s, even though the most obvious outcome is neither. If turning 40 is the start of something new, what is it the end of? … ah here, where’s me vape?
Emma Doran is one of the most exciting stand-ups to emerge from these shores in years. She’s crammed so much into the last 20 years of her life that she is now officially the voice of 3 generations.

We are delighted to announce @martinangolocomedy will bring his hilarious show “Idiot Wind” to @thevenueathlone on Friday 25th October.
Martin Angolo: Idiot Wind
Idiot Wind is the noise that comes out of a comedian’s mouth in the form of jokes and observations, and Martin Angolo is full of it.
The award-winning Irish comic looks at modern Ireland’s positive and negative cultural shifts compared to the rest of the world, in an hour that’s silly and politely offensive, in order to challenge the idea that ‘comedians can’t say anything these days’.
As seen on Amazon Prime’s LOL: Last One Laughing Ireland and Instagram where he’s gotten millions of views on his videos.
‘Very funny’ (Graham Norton)
‘Laser-sharp wit’ (Independent)
‘Martin is hilarious and is an Irish national treasure’ (Eric Andre)
