Summer in Ireland means two things; we will get a total of four days sunshine, and more importantly we get some amazing music festivals delivered right to our doorstep. This year we’ve got our sights set on Bulmers Live at Leopardstown.
Running from Thursday 9th June-Thursday 11th August, the summer-long festival is set to be packed with a variety of entertainment to keep everyone happy, from fashion awards to amazing gigs.
The official line up is enough to get us chomping at the bit (excuse the pun), with acts such as Hermitage Green, Booka Brass and The Boomtown Rats to mention a few. Throw in great food and a chance to watch the races and we’re pretty much sold!
Here are five great reasons to go to Bulmers Live at Leopardstown.
