With a mission statement to “to create one of the best boutique festival sites in Europe and bring an event that has something different to offer the festival season in Ireland”, the BARE festival site compliments its natural surroundings using timber sourced from the site itself to build some very creative stages and structures.
It is also one of the best priced festivals in Ireland with camping tickets for the 24-hour event priced at only €40 for a Day Ticket and €50 with camping.
A winner of an Irish Festival Award this year for ‘Best One Day Festival’, 80% of timber used for the festival has come from storm damaged trees and has been milled on the site by the BARE crew. The site itself is nestled beside the River Barrow and overlooked by the Slieve Bloom Mountains and features a traditional Irish Crannog and a lake with a party island that will run late in to the night.
BARE in the Woods is located only 50 minutes from Dublin and is accessible via motorway networks to all major Irish cities in under two hours. The site is located close to Portarlington railway station and serviced by Dublin Coach, with a 24-hour service to Dublin, Limerick and Cork.
