It’s the festival’s eleventh year, which they are billing as “going back to where it all began” and promising to be “smaller, smarter, cosier, shinier, glitzier”.
That also means a new festival layout and the addition of a 35-Foot Temple as a centrepiece on site designed Burning Man Temple Builder Geordie Van Der Bosch.
As part of its brand new Ideas Programme, The Temple will be a place to bring together performers, thinkers, writers and public figures from the world of music, innovation and the arts: an immersive art piece and speaker stage by day and an exclusively programmed neon disco-beam dancefloor by night.
2FM Rising returns this year with acts including Aimée, Alex Gough, Somebody’s Child, Kynsy, Nealo, Thumper, SodaBlonde, PowPig and Kitt Philippa.
Weekend tickets for the festival start at €195 from Ticketbooth and are available in3 and 5-part instalments. Family and sustainability camping options are also available.
