Garageland Galaxyz - This super legacy project is now heading in to it's 4th glorious year 2025!

This year Garageland Galaxyz is happening two exciting festival locations on the same day
  • Samuel Beckett Civic Centre in Ballyogan – Dunlaoire Rathdown (South County Dublin)
  • Swords Castle – Fingal (North County Dublin)
Garageland Galaxyz at Cruinniú na nÓg 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. There will be stages for bands, solo performers,and  music ensembles of all types. Parts of the events are filmed and broadcast live, while other parts are broadcasted later. Complete with burger vans, ice cream trucks and coffee stands, and lots of other activities for all ages, this will be a great celebration of the creativity of our young people in a big festival buzz. Our crew will engage with the young artists through interviews and workshops as the day goes along, and it’s a whole load of fun.
