BEAR NECESSITY Food crazes can be transient things, but it seems the appetite for celebrity- endorsed restaurants in Dublin is far from sated. An old school grill, Bear on Dublin’s South William Street is a collaboration between the company behind Jo’Burger, Crackbird and Skinflint, and rugby international Jamie Heaslip. From onglets, bavettes, skirts and London broils to rib eyes and pork chops, the 80-seater has positioned its meat dishes as the star attractions. ITM HIGH FLYERS After wowing more than 10 million people worldwide since its 1994 premiere in Montreal, Cirque du Soleil’s Alegría will make its Dublin debut at the O2 from 25-29 April. Featuring a cast of 55 performers and musicians from 17 countries, the 150-minute production will offer the ultimate in live entertainment, showcasing breathtaking acrobatics and synchronised choreography. Tickets are priced from E49.20 including booking fee. HOT TICKET With six Grammy awards under their belts, 70 million albums sold and their Hyde Park shows recognised as the biggest grossing event in history, The Red Hot Chili Peppers will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 14.
