Now, that you’ve seen the list, it’s time to start planning a few gigs this September! The tent and whellies may be getting thrown into the attic for another year, but you can count on us to find quality music all year round! Don’t forget to check out our Dublin food guides to find somewhere tasty to eat for the full experience.
Passionate about all things creative including food and hoping to spread a few good messages. I believe the most important thing you’ll ever do is stay true to yourself, so be free and be you!
