Dublin’s dynamic New Year’s Festival will burst into life early on 31 December and keep up the momentum until the closing hours of 1 January, ensuring that 2020 is well and truly welcomed.
To give revellers of every age the opportunity to join in the fun the Midnight Moment Matinee, an early countdown event, will begin around 6pm and will feature an amazing laser light and aqua beam display.
Bringing the Old Year to a close, the Countdown Concert at historic Custom House will see top music acts perform blistering sets that will have thousands of people dancing in the streets. Country star Lisa McHugh and Ireland’s newest female pop artist, Aimee, will join rock veterans Ash and platinum-selling Walking on Cars who will headline the festival’s highlight event.
And as 2019 draws to a close, crowds will gather along the quays for the fabulous Liffey Lights Midnight Moment. The dazzling choreographed light show will see a symphony of laser and aqua beams dance across the sky in time to original music created especially for the countdown event.
