Borderline Festival

This event has ended

The Workman's Club/Project Arts Centre, Thursday 19th February - Saturday 21st February

Now in its third year, Borderline continues to champion forward-thinking artists from Ireland and beyond — a celebration of boundary-pushing sounds and the thriving creative scene that connects them.

Two years after its breakout debut in 2024 — praised by Time Out as one of the “Best Things to Do in the World” — Borderline Festival returns bigger and bolder for 2026, expanding into The Project Arts Centre alongside The Workman’s Club for three days of cutting-edge live music, from 19–21 February 2026.

This marks a major step up for the festival, signalling its evolution from a 16 act discovery weekender into one of Ireland’s most forward-thinking multi-venue events. Across both venues, Borderline will showcase over 40 emerging and boundary-pushing artists from Ireland, the UK, Europe and beyond.
