New live music and dance entertainment, fresh menu creations and plenty of craft beer and cocktail options are on tap. To celebrate the Hooley’s fifth year, Raglan Road will present a brand-new, 90-minute live show of music and dance — The Rhythms of Raglan — produced in Ireland, exported to Raglan Road and directed by David Hayes (Riverdance, “The Voice” Ireland edition) with guest choreographers including Michael Donellan (Lord of the Dance).
