The Rising at Monroe's Live

What to Expect

The Rising play Monroe’s Live on Tuesday 15 September 2026, with doors at 8:00 PM. The show sits in the middle of a busy September at the venue, between the Iron Maiden and Joy Division tribute weekend and the arrival of The Lemonheads later in the week.

Monroe’s Live is the gig room attached to Monroe’s Tavern on Dominick Street Upper, in the West End of Galway city. It is a standing room with a raised stage, house sound and bar service down the side wall. Tuesday shows at Monroe’s usually pull a smaller, more attentive crowd than the weekend nights, and the 8:00 PM door means the music is underway early. The details here come from the venue’s own published gig calendar, which does not list a ticket price for this show, so confirm the cost with Monroe’s before travelling.

Getting There

Monroe’s is on Dominick Street Upper in the West End, roughly ten minutes on foot from Eyre Square across the Wolfe Tone Bridge. Drivers should come in on the N6 and use the Fairgreen or Jury’s Inn multi-storey car parks, then walk over, as on-street spaces in the West End are limited. City bus routes along Fr Griffin Road and Dominick Street stop close to the door, and Galway Ceannt railway and bus station is about fifteen minutes’ walk on the far side of the river.
