Centre Point is a club that launched in the brief period between October and December when gigs were allowed but now, that Ireland is open again without restrictions, promoters can be relatively safe in announcing their plans for the coming months.
Centre Point is the late-night space at the Button Factory every weekend and even in that brief window they hosted three weekends including George Fitzgerald, Krystal Klear and Chaos in the CB before it closed.
Plans for 2022 are looking good though if February is an indication with the likes of Mano Le Tough, Prospa, Partiboi69, Avalon Emerson, Romare and Dam Swindle lined up for this month.
Kicking it off this weekend are Folamour and DART. See the Nialler9 gig guide for more.

Centre Point weekends is curated by the people behind Sense, Hidden Agenda, No Sleep Club and many more of the country’s top collectives. Centre Point will land with its own ethos, production values and collaborative team of visual artists, musicians and people with a love for electronic music and dancing!
A Reminder – What’s it all about?
Clubbing is the social fabric of our society. Our city has been losing clubs, spaces to dance, meet, learn and escape. We have been starved of the unifying and euphoric experience of clubbing for the last 20 months…
It is incredibly important that we help uphold, celebrate and evolve the important role that electronic music and clubbing play in Irish art & culture. We have taken this time to re-imagine, refresh and invest in one of the city’s longest-serving music venues –The Button Factory – bringing its club experience into the year 2022 (and beyond) as Centre Point.
Centre Point is about creating a much needed new and innovative home for electronic music in the city. A space that will nurture a diverse and top-notch program of Irish and international artists. A space that will work with independent promoters, artists and creators who have a shared ethos and emphasis on music, design, and world-class audiovisual production, as well as an environmental and social vision.
We believe there is nothing more liberating than experiencing the unifying power of music, in a space where people of all backgrounds can enjoy themselves, free from judgement, in a fun-loving, responsible and respectful way.
