“A visionary exercise in inventive programming that offered music in magnificent surroundings. Probably the longest ray of sunshine we’ve had all summer.”- The Irish Times

“Those looking for authenticity are well catered for nowadays, with events like the OPW’s Salon Series.” - Sunday Tribune

The ballroom at Farmleigh is the place to be for an evening of music you will remember long after the summer has departed. Now in their fifth year, Farmleigh’s annual series of salon concerts have become a byword for musical excellence set in dramatic surroundings with a perfect music ambience and a fine natural acoustic. Curated by Improvised Music Company, these concerts bring Ireland and the world’s leading musicians into the very heart of Farmleigh, evoking a vibrant musical history that sits alongside the estate’s proud literary and artistic heritage.

Tickets for each of these intimate salon concerts are free and limited, so your earliest online application for our ticket lottery is advised to avoid disappointment!
