A warm and welcome landing to a magical location outside of Galway. Here, you are met by a lot of new, but strangely familiar faces. Your future Éalú besties. This feels good. After settling in and erecting your tent or checking into your super plush glamping pod, it’s time to explore. Main stage banging tunes, or perhaps some acoustic bliss by the river at our ‘All In Due Time’ stage. Oh, a costume camp? Fun. Now you’re in full swing, you have arrived. Dressed as a cosmic pirate, with a cold brew in hand, the dance floor is yours. Lose yourself in Draíocht Anocht to some saucy disco and house. Where the hell am I? This is Ireland? Yeah baby, It’s Éalú Le Grá. 🕺🏼
Fecking hell, what’s that DJ’s name you gleefully ask your fellow dance floor compadre. You think to yourself, Friday night! Wow! What a buzz! I guess it’s time to hit the… Wait, wtf is that, a massive geodesic dome called the ZEN:DEN? What’s inside? A silent disco under the lush hanging gardens of Disco Babylon 🪩🌿 sound tracked by some of Ireland’s finest selectors… 💫
