Their spectacular Upstairs venue has played host to both stand-alone gigs and special series, such as their acclaimed Summer of Music programme, which kept the spirit of live music alive through recorded performances when Covid-19 restrictions prevented audiences from attending.
Located in the heart of Newbridge, Judge Roy Beans has welcomed some of the biggest names in Irish music, as well as hosting brilliant tribute nights.
