Liberty Vibe will take place in Liberty Park this Saturday, October 22, between 3pm-9pm.
Dublin’s North Inner City is set to come alive this weekend as details of Liberty Vibe, an open-air concert in the heart of the city, are being revealed.
Liberty Park, nestled just off Dublin’s Foley Street, will play host to a series of live performances this Saturday, October 22, between 3pm-9pm.
Featuring a diverse range of music from pop to R&B, funk to eletronica, and hip hop to jazz, Liberty Vibe will see a collection of Dublin’s most cutting edge musicians, as well as some younger local legends take to the stage.
And the best part - the open-air concert is completely free and open for all to attend.
Irish R&B sensation Cosha will headline the Liberty Park event. The Dublin/Wicklow raised musician made her Glastonbury Debut in 2017, and has collaborated with everyone from Charli XCX to Nile Rodgers. Her set is absolutely not to be missed!

Seven-piece Dublin-based band Cooks But We're Chefs, known for their eclectic fusion of jazz, soul and hip hop will also be playing, as well as electric punk duo Nixer and the urban dance crew Black Canvas Curations.
Local North Inner city artists; sister duo Zeztra, singer-songwriter Chloe Harris and hip-hop performer Temi NLA, are set to wow the crowd on their own home turf, with Conan Wynne, better known as Contour, providing stage visuals throughout the six-hour event.
The concert is an initiative by Dublin City Council, with support from the Local Live Performance Programming Scheme.
Ahead of the event, Dublin City Arts Officer, Ray Yeates, has invited members of the public to come and be inspired, saying: "One of the few positive takeaways from the pandemic was that it helped us to re-imagine how we could use outdoor spaces for live events. Liberty Park is just a tiny patch of the city, but the intimate concert will further demonstrate the potential for similar temporary cultural events and happenings.
"It is wonderful to see so many local artists playing at the concert. Music sounds better shared, and I would invite the local community, as well as visitors to the city, to come be inspired by our local talent."
Liberty Park is located on Foley Street, adjacent to Dublin City Arts Office, The LAB Gallery, and DanceHouse - a five-minute walk from Dublin’s Connolly Station.
Liberty Vibe will take place this Saturday, October 22, between 3pm-9pm. Admission is free. The event is supported by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media’s Local Live Performance Programming Scheme. #LocalLive
