If you're heading to Forbidden Fruit this weekend (June 4th and 5th 2022) you're in for a treat - this the first edition of the Dublin festival since 2019, so it's set to be a big one.
First things first: have you checked out our '5 acts you really shouldn't miss' feature yet? That'll give you the lowdown on the biggest and best sets across both days.
Once you've done that, read on to find out all the info you need to know below, from weather reports to stage times.
TICKETS
Unfortunately, all tickets for this year's festival are sold out. If you have a ticket, it can be scanned from your phone, but there is no re-entry for either day or weekend ticket holders: once you're in for the day, you're in.
WEATHER
According to Yr.no, Saturday is looking pretty good - cloudy and sunny, with temperatures ranging from 13-14 degrees throughout the afternoon and evening. However, showers are predicted from 10pm onwards.
Sunday is looking a little cloudier and more showery all 'round, with heavier rain predicted for the evening - so best pack a mac (pocket-sized umbrellas are fine, but no large ones are allowed.)
OPENING TIMES
Festival gates open at 2pm. Last entry is at 9.30pm and the last act will finish at 10.45pm on both days.
BAG POLICY
No large bags will be permitted to the concert site. Bags A4 size & smaller will be subject to security checks on entry. Those with no bags will be fast tracked into the arena.
TRANSPORT
There is no car parking (except for those with a mobility impaired badge), so public transport is the best way to get to the festival site. The nearest red line Luas stop is Heuston, and RHK is less than a 10 minute walk from the station.
Bus routes 40, 123, 13, 79/79A and 25/25A all go past Royal Hospital, Kilmainham.
Trains into Heuston Station will leave you 10 minutes from the venue.
Taxies should come from James Street and Bow Lane. Military Road from Heuston Station will be closed for traffic.
After the event, taxi ranks will pick up outside Heuston Station and Kilmainham Gaol.
STAGE TIMES
FORBIDDEN FRUIT BY NIGHT
As always, the party continues in venues around the city after things finish at the Royal Hospital, Kilmainham - details and ticket info on all gigs can be found here.
