Garageland Galaxyz at Cruinniú na nÓg

Since 2022


Garageland Galaxyz at Cruinniú na nÓg - This super legacy project is now in planning to head in to it's 5th glorious year in 2026!

Garageland Galaxyz at Cruinniú na nÓg 2025 was in partnership with Dun Laoghaire Rathdown Coco, Fingal Coco and Creative Ireland, is a day of live performances by young musicians aged 12 – 19 (approx) in a professional festival setting, offering young musicians and their peers the opportunity to engage in a dedicated event in an environment that they can express themselves through their music. Complete with burger vans, ice cream trucks and coffee stands, and lots of other activities for all ages, this was a great celebration of the creativity of our young people in a big festival buzz. Our crew engaged with the young artists through interviews and workshops throughout the day, and it’s a whole load of fun.

Over 200 young artists took to the multiple stages at Garageland Galaxyz at Cruinniú na nÓg 2025 in the Samuel Beckett Campus Ballyogan, and Swords Castle in one of the most spectacular days of our 25 years! Earlier in May, we hosted two massive workshop days in advance of the big day itself, so the young artists could meet up and make friends, while learning a few Music Industry tricks from Dermot Lambert of Garageland and Blink, and Ryan Sheridan (both platinum selling recording artists and songwriters), as well as tech and management craft from the Head of Garageland Production team Paddy Fogarty.

With live audiences in the thousands, and online engagement of over a QUARTER MILLION reel views, Garageland are delighted to have been leading the teams that delivered these fabulous sets of experiences and memories for the many many young performers and their friends and families.

Thanks to Creative Ireland, Dunlaoire Rathdown Coco, Fingal Coco, with support from RTE, IMRO, Music Gen, and our many youth sector partners, the many mammies daddies and guardians, and of course the artists themselves! You guys rocked Galaxyz!!
