The Stardust Tragedy

23-05-2024 • 45 mins

The Stardust families bury their dead amid heart-breaking scenes, while Taoiseach Charles Haughey appoints eminent judge Ronan Keane to chair a tribunal into the disaster. A rushed inquest wouldn’t look at the cause of the fire and would declare a verdict in line with the medical evidence. And then the Keane Report in June 1982 would rule that one of the patrons inside the Stardust was responsible for the blaze without any evidence and the distraught families are plunged into a new world of despair.


The Stardust Tragedy is brought to you by the Irish Sun. The series is produced by the Urban Media.
