Beyond The Pale will return for 2026 edition next June

Beyond The Pale festival is set to return to Glendalough Estate, Co. Wicklow from Friday June 12 to Sunday June 14, 2026.

Tickets go on presale this Friday June 27 at 10am, with general sale next Monday June 30 from www.itsbeyondthepale.ie

This year’s festival saw over 10,000 attendees, with a musical lineup including Róisín Murphy, Boney M, Jon Hopkins, Samantha Mumba, TV On The Radio and Marc Rebillet, among others.

Beyond The Pale’s arts lineup across the weekend featured Meow Meow, SexyTadhg, Rathaus, and Kabin Studio (GMC Beats); culinary delights from the Beyond The Plate area curated by Ali Dunworth; and therapies in the Acushla wellness haven including yoga, massage, saunas and cold dips in a natural Wicklow spring.

This year marked the first year of Beyond The Trail charity walk in partnership with Dublin Simon Community, a guided hike through The Wicklow Way from Marlay Park to the festival gates on Friday the 13th which raised €18,000.

The weekend also included Penos For Palestine, where festival-goers of all ages had the chance to score against eight-time All-Ireland champion Michael Darragh MacAuley with all proceeds going directly to Médecins Sans Frontières’ Gaza Emergency Regional Fund. Rounding out the weekend's community-led initiatives, McAuley, who is also CEO of Sanctuary Runners, led a 3km fun run across the festival grounds.

Festival organisers commented “Beyond The Pale is created by a small, independent team of passionate music obsessives and festival-makers, working around the clock to craft moments that move you, and ourselves.” As the festival looks ahead, organisers shared a heartfelt message of gratitude to everyone who made last weekend’s festival possible, from tireless crews and artists, to passionate attendees and volunteers who gave their “energy, time, and heart” and “showed up and made this dream a reality”.

“Your love, unstoppable energy, and unwavering support over the past week and festival weekend means the world to us,” said the Beyond The Pale team. “We believe we’re building more than a weekend—we’re growing a thriving, inclusive community that grows stronger every year. We can’t wait for Beyond The Pale 2026, and beyond.”
