KnockanStockan Independent Music Festival is back!
July 24th, 25th, 26th
Blessington Lakes, Co Wicklow
Now in its 3rd year and wearing a “best small festival” award around its neck, the festival run by musicians for music lovers has declared 2009 the year that
“you’re a festival”.
Located in Wicklow overlooking Blessington Lakes, over three days some of Ireland’s greatest bands and entertainers will congregate as a collective to put on a show as never seen before on these shores. Still holding true to its original ethos it is a barrier-free, open and very welcoming festival. At a quarter of the price of the bigger festivals, the emphasis is on good music and performance arts, not money making.
4 amazing stages , over 125 acts, fantastic free camping.
This year’s festival will be woven together by the crew (who all work for free), the local community, the farmer and YOU!
The festival NOT to be missed!!!
65euro ticket price includes 3 nights camping!
