One of the most fun festivals of the year and a top one for highlighting great new Irish bands, Hard Working Class Heroes is back again this year from Thursday 6th October to Saturday 8th October for it’s ninth consecutive year.

Tickets for the events early bird tickets will be priced at €35 + booking fees compared with the full weekend festival price of €45. Grab them while you can! Offer lasts until July 16th. Tickets for just one night are €20 so if trekking across the Dublin venues which included The Button Factory, The Mercantile, The Grand Social, Shebeen Chic, Twisted Pepper and The Workmans Club for an entire weekend isn’t your thing then you can pick up the pass for one night of great music.

Launching last night they have kicked off their call for bands to apply aswell as for artist and photographer submissions. The closing date for applications is July 16th and a judging panel for applications will be made up of writers, A&R and music industry people from around the globe as well as international festival programmers.
