An Grianán Theatre

When we were in Letterkenny a couple of years ago, we visited this theatre.  They have a nice coffee cafe inside and it is quite the building.  
An Grianán Theatre, with a seating capacity of 383, is the largest theatre in Letterkenny and in the whole of County Donegal.  
The theatre was named after Grianán of Aileach (‘Stony House of the Sun’), a prehistoric ring fort located in Burt believed to date back to 1700 BC.
It opened in 1999.   An Grianán Theatre website
