Maria Doyle Kennedy is to give an intimate performance at Danú at The Brehon, Killarney



The highly successful Danú Restaurant has continued the trail blazing trend of bringing innovation to food in Killarney and have now expanded this even further with their launch of their series of Celtic Goddess Nights.  The first Celtic Goddess Night is on Thursday 25th April and Danú are proud to announce they will be hosting an intimate performance by Maria Doyle Kennedy.

Maria remains one of Ireland’s best-kept secrets. Indeed the raven-haired Dubliner is probably more familiar as either Katherine of Aragon, nanny to the son of a serial killer or the estranged wife of the lovely Mr Bates from the three award-winning television series, The Tudors, Dexter and Downton Abbey. Irish music monthly Hot Press once described Doyle Kennedy as “the finest voice this country has ever produced”. Maria has spent more than two decades performing all over the world before audiences ranging from tens of thousands at Glastonbury, Oxygen and the Cambridge Folk Festival, to hundreds in small, intimate theatres.

Our Celtic Goddess Nights were derived from the origins of the restaurant’s name, Danú.  The name Danú originates from Irish mythology – Danú being the oldest Celtic Goddess, particularly associated with the Province of Munster and its fertile soil. Danú’s menu as devised by Head Chef, Chad Byrne, presents fresh Irish produce served with a modern flair

Tickets to the Celtic Goddess Evening with Maria Doyle Kennedy cost €45 per person. This includes a two course gourmet meal in Danú Restaurant followed by a performance by Maria Doyle Kennedy. Places are limited so early booking is advisable.
