Immerse yourself in the extraordinary power and grace of its music and dance-beloved by fans of all ages. Fall in love with the magic of Riverdance all over again.

The critically acclaimed 25th Anniversary North American Tour was shut down in March 2020 during a sold-out return engagement to New York City's Radio City Music Hall due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, Riverdance celebrated a return to the stage in the United Kingdom, where the iconic show played to sold out audiences in 27 cities across the country. Then followed its debut at Expo 2020 Dubai with a special production of Riverdance presenting a multi-cultural experience including artists from the Middle East region. A highlight of the four-week run was the Riverdance performance at the USA Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai for their Thanksgiving Day celebrations.

Riverdance The Animated Adventure was released on Netflix in the United States on January 14, 2022, where it swiftly landed a spot on the streamer's Global Top 10 list. With an original score by Grammy Award-winning composer Bill Whelan , the animated musical comedy features the incredible craft and skill of the Riverdance troupe by utilizing motion capture of their performances to create the animated dancing in the film. Tour lead dancers Maggie Darlington and Anna Mai Fitzpatrick and Executive Producer/Director Padraic Moyles were involved with the dance production for the film, while tour musicians Mark Alfred and Tara Howley play on the film score.

Riverdance began its journey as the interval act in the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest, produced for television by Moya Doherty . This electrifying and innovative seven-minute dance piece was then developed into a full-length stage show by Producer Moya Doherty , Composer Bill Whelan and Director John McColgan . With its fusion of Irish and International music and dance, the show broke all box office records during its world première run in Dublin in early 1995. When the show transferred to London the reaction was unprecedented. There followed a hugely successful tour starting in New York in March 1996, where 8 sold-out shows at Radio City Music Hall heralded the start of more than two decades of touring by Riverdance companies throughout North America. Since its inception, Riverdance has packed theatres throughout North America, Oceania, Asia, Europe, South Africa and South America.

Riverdance 25th Anniversary Show has been designed by lead designer Peter Canning, featuring Set by Alan Farquharson , Lighting by Andrew Voller and Video by Cosmo AV along with Costumes by Joan Bergin and Sound by Michael O'Gorman.

Why See Riverdance?

Family Shows Dance & Ballet

30 Years Of Riverdance

30 years after Riverdance first took the world's breath away with its explosive combination of traditional Irish music and dance, the company's fine footwork continues to evolve, captivating audiences from East to West as its fan base grows steadily. Experience the magic when the legendary company step their way to you in 2024 on this 30th Anniversary Tour!

The story of Riverdance

Riverdance had a humble beginning as a 7-minute long interval filler at the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest. The interlude earned a standing ovation; all it took was this little spark and the show was developed into a fully-fledged production. Initially featuring Irish dancing champions Michael Flatley and Jean Butler as its principal dancers, the show is now a training ground for Ireland's top dancers as well as the rising stars of Flamenco, Russian and Tap Dancing.  A celebration of Ireland's cultural heritage, history and mythology, the production revolves around the intricate footwork of traditional Irish dance set to the haunting melodies and rousing rhythms of the nation's musical identity. The awe-inspiring skill of the dancers and the thunderous, pulsing beat of their hard shoes against the stage floor is simply captivating, whilst the musicians positioned on stage play their own principal role - their music is spirited, joyful and not banished to the confines of the orchestra pit. When the two meet, the ceilidh-like on-stage energy is palpable and infectious. Moving as swiftly as its dancers, Riverdance's choreography ranges from an Irish Jig to Jazz tap to Spanish dancing. It's this embrace of other cultures and styles that makes the show as relevant and exciting as ever.

Evanescence announces Edmonton tour stop in October

They're back in black!

No, Edmonton, it's not AC/DC (although they are touring in Europe this summer ...).

The gothic-alternative metal (and primarily black-wearing) band Evanescence will play Rogers Place this fall, with tickets for the Sunday, Oct. 20, date on sale to the general public this Friday at 10 a.m.

An artist presale begins Wednesday at 10 a.m.

Evanescence is a rock legend in its own right as winners of two Grammy awards among others to go with multiple nominations.

Formed in Little Rock, Ark., in 1994, Evanescence's 2003 debut album Fallen spawned hit singles such as top-10s Bring Me To Life and My Immortal, and has sold 17-million copies, catapulting them to worldwide musical fame.

They've since released four more albums, all to critical acclaim and relatively high commercial success.

The Rogers Place stop is one of nine dates on their first headlining tour across Canada in 15 years.
