Feel the bass pulsate…
and, course up through your feet.

Follow this ‘cuisle’,
the beating of Éire’s raving heart,

Rushing underneath, and carrying you,
to where the party goes meet.

At Bualadh Bass, Cork’s newest independent festival,
we have a serious legacy to uphold.
Folks have been coming together to celebrate the Summer Solstice, since fado fado.

In this newest edition of our celtic ravers tradition,
let’s see just how long,
the longest day of the year really is…

As we bring together a blend of various music genres, art forms and performances, creating an unparalleled and enchanting musical journey.

For all of us at Bualadh Bass, this isn’t just a party, it’s a tribute to our ever growing community. One that’s deliciously diverse and fantastically inclusive, representing all those that make our country so beautiful.
The they’s, the them’s, the he’s, the she’s.

Whether you’ve just arrived on these shores or you’re born and bred,
everyone is welcome here.

We want you to leave with a head,
and heart full of memories.
That drop that made you almost lose your mind,
The stories spilled by fireside.
The night you just don’t want to end,
As you dance it away with your brand new friend.
