The Cycling Operatic Convoy

Friday 18th September @ 6.30pm
  • The Limerick Opera Festival - The On-Street Opera Trail 810x456

Join the Limerick Cycling Campaign and the Limerick Opera Festival for a unique, atmospheric celebration of song and city.

This Culture Night, the streets of Limerick become a temporary stage as a professional opera singer is chauffeured through the city's historic core in a passenger trishaw.

Accompanied by a rolling convoy of cyclists and a mobile sound-system, “The Opera Cycle” will start at Arthur’s Quay Park before pausing at the city's most iconic landmarks to perform a song or two for onlookers. 

From the revitalized streetscape of O’Connell Street to a grand finale at King John’s Castle, witness the power of the operatic voice set against the backdrop of Limericks rich architectural heritage.

This event aims to bring world-class performance out of traditional venues and directly into the public square. 

Spectators are invited to follow the convoy on their own bikes or simply enjoy a performance as it passes through the city. 

Experience a calm and musical journey through the city that blends sustainable transport with the timeless beauty of opera.
