Hibernacle: New boutique music festival for Dublin announced

RTÉ News​01-05-2025

Pillow Queens, Lisa Hannigan, and Ye Vagabonds are among the acts who will play Hibernacle, a new boutique music festival in Rathfarnham, Dublin this July.
Wallis Bird, Jape, Ailbhe Reddy, Gráinne Hunt, and Áine Tyrrell and an as yet to be announced headliner will also appear over the weekend of 4 to 6 July at Orlagh House, a Georgian mansion built in 1790 set on 50 acres of grounds in the foothills of the Dublin mountains.
Tickets go on sale on 6 May here.
Hibernacle promotors say the weekend "is the perfect antidote to the larger, more chaotic festivals out there. It's a relaxed, "grown-up" festival experience with classy food vendors, great drinks, and no stress - just music, people, and memories".
The weekend will also feature late-night after-show sessions on both Friday and Saturday evenings inside Orlagh House.
