Neal's
New Musick Hall, which was located on Fishamble Street, now a very famous
street in Dublin, is itself famous for being the venue where Handel's
Messiah was first performed, for charity, on the 13th of April 1742.
The Messiah is still performed every year on Fishamble Street in an
annual open air concert to celebrate the fact.
