More acts are set to be announced over the coming months for the fifth edition of Beyond The Pale, which recently entered a new chapter under FUEL’s festival management.
FUEL also organises WellFest, Europe’s largest outdoor health and wellness festival, and family festival Kaleidoscope, the latter of which is run in partnership with Festival Republic, Live Nation, and MCD.
“Beyond The Pale 2026 doesn’t just mark a fifth-year milestone or a summer return, it marks a future firmly secured and a win for independent festivals,” the organisers commented. “Proof that boutique festivals can thrive, lead with culture, and curate music, food, and weekend or day experiences festival-goers truly crave.”
The latest announcement marks the first in a series of line-up reveals, with the next tranche of names set to be announced in early 2026.
“We’re curating world-class music, arts, culture and food, with boutique luxury layered throughout, from glamping and wellness to chef-led restaurant pop-ups,” the organisers added.” Just 30 minutes from Dublin, festival-goers can enjoy all as a full-weekend experience or the ideal one-day escape.”
Tickets for next year’s festival are available through flexible instalment plans – of four payments of €62.25 plus service fees – with pre-sale tickets going on sale at 10am on 20 November, and general release tickets on sale on 21 November.
