Powerscourt Hotel Resort & Spa has completed a €750,000 refurbishment and addition of an outdoor amphitheatre in its 10th Anniversary year.
Located on Ireland’s famous Powerscourt Estate, County Wicklow, 30 minutes outside Dublin, the Palladian-style hotel boasts views of the Sugar Loaf Mountain.
Marking its milestone birthday, and completion of the first phase of a multi-phase refurbishment programme, the hotel will be celebrating with a 10th anniversary party on 1st February 2018.
An investment of €250,000 was assigned to the installation of the outdoor amphitheatre which adds to the extensive world-class event space offering at the resort.
Incorporating the latest in technological innovation, the amphitheatre structure is fully future proofed with high speed 100mb broadband, state-of-the-art sound system and 3-phase power supply, making it fit for purpose for any outdoor event. Measuring 1600sqm, tiered seating for 240 guests, direct car access and fully catered, the amphitheatre is the ideal location for product launches, teambuilding, concerts, outdoor cinemas and weddings.
It joins the purpose built 5,959sqm ballroom and 1,111sqm of conference and meeting space which are all accessed through a private entrance, making the hotel fit for exclusive events.
A specialist, dedicated meetings and events team, as well as an event planner, offer an unprecedented wealth of experience and high levels of service for guests.
One of the owners, Damien Gaffney, managing director of Tetrarch Hospitality said: “I am delighted to say that from the outset, working with Ian and the team here in Powerscourt to refurbish the lobby, Sugar Loaf lounge, external area to SIKA and undertake the mammoth project of developing our own outdoor amphitheatre, has been a pleasure. The finished product is an outstanding reflection of everyone’s hard work and we hope that every single guest that comes to stay with us or use our facilities feels the same way as we for a long time to come.”
