An Evening Of Conversation. Up Close.
Join us at 3Arena, Dublin for a special evening designed to bring the audience closer to one of the most influential voices of our time.
The evening will open with a short speaking piece from David Meade, setting the tone and framing the experience for the audience. This will be followed by a live performance from Niall Breslin (Bressie), bringing a reflective and atmospheric energy to the night.
David and Niall will then return to the stage for a brief and engaging conversation, offering insight and perspective before the main event.
The main event of the evening will see Oprah take to the stage for a live, in-depth conversation with David Meade, reflecting on her life, journey and the experiences that have shaped her path. The discussion will be thoughtful, engaging and grounded, offering the audience a rare opportunity to experience Oprah in a more personal and immersive setting.
