Orlagh House, Friday 4th July - Sunday 6th July

HIBERNACLE is here! A brand new intimate 3-day music event coming to Orlagh House in Rathfarnham, Dublin this July 4th, 5th and 6th, 2025. Nestled in the breathtaking Dublin Mountains, just a short hop from the city, this beautifully curated festival brings together a powerful mix of Ireland’s rising stars and seasoned favourites for a weekend of music, connection, and the joy of live music done right.

We are so excited to announce the first wave of artists set to take the stage at Hibernacle, including Pillow Queens, Lisa Hannigan, Ye Vagabonds, Wallis Bird, Ailbhe Reddy, Gráinne Hunt, and Áine Tyrrell – plus a VERY special headliner still to be revealed.
This is your chance to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and immerse yourself in a weekend of music, new friends, and the relaxed spirit of Orlagh House.

What to Expect
Hibernacle is a fresh, intimate festival celebrating music, art, and community in the magical, history-rich grounds of Orlagh House — a place that feels as welcoming as your favourite local, where music flows as easily as the pints. Curated by music lovers for music lovers, the festival centres around one main outdoor stage, while hidden gems and secret sessions wait to be discovered throughout the estate's serene surroundings. From soul-stirring ballads to high-energy sets, Hibernacle blends emerging and established artists in collaborative, immersive performances that spark real connection. It’s all wrapped in a cosy, close-knit atmosphere that feels more like a gathering than a festival — and when the sun sets, the magic keeps going with live sets in the main hall, trad sessions by the fire, and DJs spinning deep into the night.

Irish Roulette 1.0

The Grand Social

On Tuesday, 29 September 2026, five of Dublin's hottest up-and-coming acts, Soft Rules, SAOL, The Psychs, Conor Kinsella, and Punter, will take the stage for Irish Roulette, a one-night event where the running order isn't set backstage; it's set on a spinning wheel, by an audience member, live, in front of everyone. Here's how it works: all five names go up on the wheel. Through the night, punters get pulled up on stage to give it a spin, and whoever it lands on plays next. Nobody, not the bands, not the promoters, not the audience, knows the lineup until it's happening in real time.
