Festival news!

It Takes A Village has dropped the flyer for its September 17th-19th festival and we’re already intoxicated by the mere thought of a real festival.

The festival is set to be headlined by legendary Irish rockers Those Nervous Animals, as well as production duo Fish Go Deep – an historic part of the Cork music scene, having run the Sweat night in the city’s iconic Sir Henry’s venue.

Rounding off the line-up will be The Blindboy Podcast, which needs no introduction.

Elsewhere, the bill is stacked with loads of upcoming Irish talent, including the likes of Dundalk rap duo TPM, ‘Up The Flats’ singer Gemma Dunleavy, and singer-songwriter John Francis Flynn, whose 2021 debut album received rave reviews.

Tickets go on sale from midday today, and you have to register in order to be eligible. The festival takes place in Trabolgan Holiday Village, and tickets will be sold in the form of houses for between 2 and 6 people. The organisers have also specified that the swimming pool will be open throughout the weekend, and attendees will have access to the beach. If you miss out on tickets today, the remainder will go on sale tomorrow (if there are any tickets remaining).

You can see the full roster of acts below.

It is an incredible privilege to present an all Irish lineup like this, in a time like this.

Sit back and digest until tickets go on sale at 12pm. You can register on the site until then.
