Sive at the Gaiety Theatre

Running throughout February, the Gaiety Theatre, Dublin

Showcasing the finest in forward-facing music from Ireland and abroad across two nights in the heart of Dublin, Borderline is a celebration of creativity. Acts set to perform include Cardinals, Enola Gay, Miso Extra and more.

An intimate piano recital with Jamie Duffy

16 February, Newbridge House & Farm

An amazing opportunity to see 22-year-old musician/songwriter/pianist Jamie Duffy live in concert, the genre-bending talent will perform in the Red Room, with its opulence, grandeur and dramatic backdrop on the recently restored Erard piano.

Swiftogeddon – The Taylor Swift Club Night

17 February, The Grand Social, Dublin

The ultimate Galentine’s celebration, Swiftogeddon returns to The Grand Social for a night dedicated to worshipping at the altar of Taylor Swift. Expect non-stop Swift all night: deep cuts, extended mixes, fan favourites and all the hits.
