The Gaiety Theatre
The Gaiety Theatre is a theatre located on South King Street in Dublin, Ireland, off Grafton Street and close to St. Stephen's Green. It specializes in opera and musical productions, with occasional dramatic shows.
Designed by architect C.J. Phipps and built in less than 7 months, the Gaiety was opened on 27 November 1871 with the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland as guest of honor and a double bill of the comedy She Stoops to Conquer and the burlesque La Belle Sauvage.
For 138 years The Gaiety Theatre has offered the inhabitants of Dublin opera, musicals, drama, revues, comedy, concerts, dance, festivals and pantomime. Since the glamorous night of its opening, The Gaiety Theatre has remained true to the vision of its founders in presenting the highest quality musical and dramatic entertainment.

In 2003, the owners, Denis and Caroline Desmond, invested over €2.15 million in the biggest restoration programme The Gaiety Theatre had seen in over 50 years including the installation of an air conditioning system and new seating with increased leg room for improved patron comfort.

The latest restorations were undertaken in 2007. The theatre’s stage has been completely reconstructed, the orchestra pit extended, the scenery flying accommodations improved and a new and taller tower and operating and loading galleries have been built.
The theatre hosted the 1971 Eurovision Song Contest, the first to be held in Ireland, during the Gaiety's centenary year.
A nightclub is open every Friday and Saturday night in the Gaiety, with live bands on different floors.
