New Music Dublin

Various Locations, Wednesday 15th April - Sunday 19th April

An annual festival of new music for curious minds! 25+ live performances in the National Concert Hall and across Dublin 15th-19th April 2026.

New Music Dublin is Ireland’s foremost contemporary music festival, taking place in Spring each year within the National Concert Hall and other venues throughout Dublin. It is a true partnership project, as whilst the festival is programmed and managed by New Music Dublin CLG, it only exists through very significant support from partner organisations including the Arts Council, the National Concert Hall, RTÉ, Culture Ireland, the Contemporary Music Centre, RIAM, and Irish performing groups including Crash Ensemble, Evlana and Chamber Choir Ireland.
