After a successful run at Dublin's Olympia Theatre earlier in the year, Once - The Musical will return to the same venue next summer.

The stage version of John Carney's film has been enormously successful around the world, playing in London's West End, on Broadway and in various other locations, picking up numerous awards along the way.

Now, having played to 50,000 people during its Dublin run this year, it will return to the Olympia from July 2nd - August 27th 2016.

Tickets, from €29.50, are on sale from usual outlets now.
