Beyond the Pale festival confirms it WILL go ahead after behind-the-scenes chaos
The organisers of Beyond the Pale have confirmed the three-day music and arts festival will go ahead next weekend – but admitted it came dangerously close to being cancelled. The statement followed a wave of confusion over the weekend after The Currency reported that the festival's organiser had informed stakeholders the event was off, following a decision to immediately liquidate Cupola Events Ltd, the company behind the festival. The festival, set to welcome 12,000 attendees to Glendalough, Co Wicklow from June 13 to 15th, remained in limbo for hours while fans, artists, and industry insiders awaited clarity. Pic: Shutterstock Late on Sunday, organisers broke their silence on social media, saying: 'Look, it's unbelievably tough out there for independent festivals, venues, promoters, artists… we all know that. Today we very nearly stumbled. But the festival gods smiled upon us, and the fate of Beyond the Pale is secure for 2025 — and for many years to come.' 'Thanks for bearing with us today, thanks for all the messages and gestures of support… and see you at Glendalough next week! PS: The forecast is hot and sunny.' Pic: Shutterstock Despite the chaos, tickets remained on sale throughout the weekend, with three-day camping passes priced at €269. This year's lineup includes Jon Hopkins, Róisín Murphy, Boney M, Jeff Mills, TV on the Radio, and Samantha Mumba. DJ Dave Clarke, set to travel from Amsterdam to perform, told RTÉ on Sunday: 'It's very confusing. I've seen the reports, but the information changes all the time. I'll still be flying to Ireland – I love it too much.' Launched in 2022 with fewer than 5,000 attendees, Beyond the Pale has quickly grown to host over 10,000 people. It was named Best Small Festival at the IMRO Awards last year. Find the festival's full programme here.
