Go behind-the-scenes of the National Theatre of Ireland with our backstage tours.

Ever wondered exactly what is involved in creating a play? Or what happens behind-the-scenes while you are watching a performance?

This is your chance to step on stage and see our National Theatre in a new light. Explore the historic building, the diverse artwork, and the current shows, as our guides pull back the curtain to bring the history and the heart of the Abbey Theatre to life. 

The Abbey Theatre is happy to announce that our backstage tours feature in the St Patrick’s Festival 2024.

Our tours are scheduled to match the performance dates of productions. Backstage Tours are not scheduled between productions or during preview performances. 

Tours last for approximately 60-75 minutes and start from the Abbey foyer. 

Accessibility and Suitability 

The Backstage Tour crosses multiple levels and involves stairs. Please specify if mobility is an issue when booking, and we will do our utmost to accommodate. 

Due to particular production requirements, certain areas may not be available on some tours. 

We recommend the tour for ages 16+.
