Yes six years now and having attended last year I can attest that this is a great event where amazingly despite some of the great acts and amount of things to see and do, it’s mostly free.
They Dublin City Soul Festival 2012 will be returning on Thursday 24th to Sunday 27th May 2012. Of course these events being free that doesn’t mean you can’t donate to a good cause if you enjoy yourself with the ‘Musical Youth Foundation’ being the principal benefactor from any donations.
The Soul Picnic will return in Merrion Square park in it’s picnic style event with a lineup of amazing local, national and international soul acts. Tasty treat will be littered around the area from a variety of vendors. It will take place on the Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th on May.
The full lineup is still to be announced with details expected soon. There will be a soul food restaurant trail, a city music trail and Eye candy which will be a photography and art exhibition.
We will keep you updated on what other amazing events they come up with and will fill you in on the lineup of acts once we hear them.
