Choirs at Goldie Chapel – Saturday

Fringe Concert
Sat, 2nd May 2026
1:10 pm

The beautiful high Victorian chapel in the heart of Nano Nagle Place is one of Cork’s most intimate venues. The chapel was designed by architect George Goldie in 1865 and retains the layout of a convent chapel with stalls arranged around the nave. The architecture is intended to enhance the sound of singing voices, making it the perfect place to hear a great choir in action.
