The fourth annual Irish Festival Awards took place at The Sugar Club on Leeson St last night, featuring live music from great up and coming Irish acts Sacred Animals, Daithi and The Cast of Cheers.
We're a little surprised to see Arcade Fire take the award for best headliner, considering the woeful response they received at Oxegen, but other than that the winners are most deserving. See for yourself below:
