The Soweto String Quartet make their first visit to Ireland with a night at the Olympia. They came to international attention with their first major gig, at the inauguration of President Nelson Mandela. Sandile Khemese, first violinist and musical director of the SSQ, has said it was the turning point of their career and the world’s stages started to open up to them. Since then, the group have performed to packed houses at the Royal Festival Hall in London and now play Dublin as part of a wider European tour.

A dramatic new subterrenean attraction offers a torchlit trudge through the tunnels and stairways running either side of the Wien river as it passes beneath the Naschmarkt. The walk is an eerie extravaganza of flickering shadows and damp brickwork accompanied by bagpipes and drums to highlight the 30-second echo. All participants receive a flaming torch and a diploma from the organisers, the Underground Club of Vienna. The twice-weekly tours should be booked in advance as water levels can rise dramatically and cause cancellations.
