The debut edition of Emerge Festival will take place in Belfast this summer.
The new event, from the organisers behind Shine and Belsonic, will take place at Boucher Road Playing Field over two days across the August bank holiday weekend, with performances from Eric Prydz, Disclosure (pictured), Peggy Gou, Kettama, Mall Grab, and more.
The line-up will bring together world-famous electronic acts and new talent emerging out of the Irish dance music scene, with over 40 acts set to perform across three stages. Co-promoter and director Alan Simms commented:
"The electronic music scene is one that has grown steadily in Belfast over the 30-odd years that I’ve been promoting in the city with my Shine brand, and it’s grown exponentially over the last few years. Belfast is one of the most fertile and dynamic scenes of its kind in the UK or Ireland. We’ve promoted many large scale outdoor electronic events in recent years but always wanted to do a huge multi-stage event of this kind. Feedback from our audience suggested that a huge appetite exists for a unique production of this kind in Northern Ireland. We’re lucky to have some of the world’s biggest names in dance music on our inaugural line-up of Emerge Music Festival, most of whom we’ve been working with since their very first club shows in the country."
What? A two-day festival based in Belfast featuring a line-up of some of the biggest names in dance and electronic music, along with rising talent.
Where? Boucher Road Playing Field, Belfast.
When? August 27-28, 2022.
Who? Headliners Eric Prydz, Disclosure, Peggy Gou, and Patrick Topping lead the line-up, with Kettama, Mall Grab, Micahel Bibi, DJ Seinfeld, Dusky, Special Request, FJAAK, Rebekah and many others also set to perform.
