The Tivoli Theatre was a theatre on Francis Street in The Liberties, Dublin which closed in 2019 and was demolished shortly afterwards for replacement by a hotel[1]
The theatre opened on 21 December 193 as a replacement for an earlier Tivoli Theatre located on Burgh Quay, which had closed in May 1928.[2]
Built to the designs of architect Vincent Kelly with seating provided for 700. The Tivoli Theatre opened as a cine-variety theatre, but by the late-1930s it had converted to full-time cinema use and was renamed Tivoli Cinema.
The Tivoli Cinema was closed in September 1964. It was converted into a nightclub and a shop; before finally re-opening as a live theatre in 1987 and renamed Tivoli Theatre. At time of closing, the upper theatre could seat 475; and the lower venue was in operation as a nightclub
The walls of the carpark had become a noted street art location and the planning permission to demolish the theatre required the extant art to be photographed and documented prior to demolition[3]
Notable Performances
The venue had seen The Cranberries, Oasis, Blur, Suede, The Beastie Boys, Rage Against the Machine[4], Deadmau5 and $uicideBoy$ perform.
That Petrol Emotion played the Tivoli three times[5], including their Irish farewell gig in 1994. Recordings from that concert were included on the live album Final Flame (Fire, Detonation And Sublime Chaos).
