The weekend headliners are Kaytranada, Nia Archives, Kettama, Joy Crookes, Sister Nancy, Trinity Orchestra, Folamour, Moio and there will be much more on offer. Gates will open at 2pm each day, and the last entry permitted to the festival will be at 9pm. It is a strictly 18+ event and a proof of valid ID will be needed. The festival will be a cashless event, with card or phone payments only so make sure your phone is fully charged. Also make sure to add your ticket to your phone wallet before you arrive. To reach the festival, you can get to the venue by taking the 145 or C-Spine buses C 1,2,3,4 to Heuston Station. After that, you will need to walk eight minutes to the venue via the Military Road gate. You can also take a bus, the 13 or 73 to St James’s Hospital, which is also an eight-minute walk via Bow Lane onto Irwin Street and then Military Road. Heuston Station is just a five-minute walk to the venue. With the Luas, you can take the Red Line from The Point towards Saggart/Tallaght and exit at Heuston Station. There will be no parking available at the venue. Traffic restrictions will be in place on Military Road and Kilmainham Lane. For those without tickets looking to get the chance to see some of the most popular acts in music, unfortunately the annual festival is officially sold out.
