The Four Italian Tenors at Theatre Royal Waterford

What to Expect

The Four Italian Tenors play Theatre Royal Waterford on Friday 9 October 2026, presented by Act One Presents. The quartet formed in 2018 and works through Italian opera and song with original arrangements and piano accompaniment rather than a full orchestra, which keeps the focus on the four voices and how they combine across the programme.

The group has performed more than 140 concerts internationally, including a 57-concert tour of the United States in 2019, and this run is billed as their debut tour of Ireland. The Waterford date is part of that first Irish visit. Individual pieces are not listed in advance, but the repertoire draws on the standard Italian operatic and popular song canon, and the theatre’s billing points to a performance balancing emotional depth with technical brilliance. Note the earlier 7:30 PM curtain rather than the usual 8:00 PM. Tickets are €37.50.
