The addition of these routes is aimed at enhancing the convenience and accessibility of events held at the TF Royal, ensuring that fans from across the region can easily attend their favourite shows without the hassle of driving.

Michael Yates, general manager of the TF Royal Hotel and Theatre, expressed his enthusiasm for the new service.

He stated: "We are delighted to partner with Corduff Travel to offer these new bus routes, making it even easier for our patrons to enjoy the fantastic events we host here at the TF Royal.

"This initiative reflects our commitment to providing the best possible experience for our guests, from the moment they leave their homes to the time they leave our venue."

In addition to the new transportation options, the TF Royal is also pleased to announce the introduction of a new food truck, The Butcher's Burger Van, which will be stationed at the venue after selected shows.

The Butcher's Burger Van will be available on both nights of the Wolfe Tones gigs, offering concert-goers a delicious way to cap off their evening.

"At the TF Royal, we are constantly evolving to meet the needs of our guests," Gillian Conway, Director of Marketing and Entertainment commented.
