About the show

This April, Mermaid will host a unique event, fusing GAA, live music and film. Experience a full screening of the historic final, in which Donegal defeated Dublin, accompanied by a live musical performance.

The original soundtrack has been composed by musician Brian Dillon, who will be joined by Ben Bix, Caitriona Finegan, and Molly O’Shea. The four-piece ensemble will perform music composed specifically to reflect the emotion and drama of the match.

Donegal's 1992 triumph is considered a pivotal moment in GAA history, inspiring other so-called "non-traditional" counties to aim for success. It marked the beginning of a more competitive era in Gaelic football and hurling during the 1990s and will be retold in dramatic form in the Mermaid Arts Centre.
