Jam@The Royal had the Theatre Royal rocking last night as Waterford's young musical talent gave a spectacular performance on the new flipped main stage.

Jam@TheRoyal now in its third year culminated with a foot-stomping musical extravaganza at the Theatre Royal Waterford. The partnership with Music Generation Waterford and the Theatre Royal offers second-level students the opportunity to spend three days inside the theatre working with professional gigging musicians and technicians, as well as the opportunity to learn more about live performance, sound production, technical set-up, how to form bands and rehearse. With this knowledge and under the tuition of mentors the young musicians each perform a three-song set live on stage.

The official hosts for the evening were Sara Whelan and Oscar Devlin
The vocalist's mentor was Conor Clancy
