Upstart Festival 2024: Lineup, Tickets, and Details for this weekend

The festival returns to Glounthaune Village near Cork City for another outdoor event this weekend.

Playing live are six emerging acts for the volunteer-led non-profit festival’s fourth edition, which receives government funding.

The lineup features the much-buzzed about Cork alternative band I Dreamed I Dream (their debut EP is great), alt-rockers Cardinals, The Men From Manhole (featuring three-fifths of 90’s weirdo Cork band Manhole), shoegaze/ Alternative rock band Mossy, Single Men In Their Twenties (“don’t be asking me”) and Galway’s Telebox.

The one-day festival is welcome to younger music fans aged 15 with a parent or guardian and over too, and tickets are €25 plus fee from Eventbrite.

Gates open: 3:30pm.
