I'm All About That Bass: God Is An Astronaut's Niels Kinsella, live in Milan.

With the combination of the Live Performance Support Scheme and the success of the Government's test gigs at the Iveagh Gardens and the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, we are on the verge of a huge explosion of music activity. As part of our Summer of Music 2021 special feature, we're taking a look at some of the most eagerly anticipated events of the summer...

Where: Beaulieu House & Gardens, Drogheda, Co. Louth.

When: September 10 & 11

What: Revellers are set to return to the Vantastival Festival site for two nights of outdoor concerts, featuring acclaimed Irish rock and folk acts on the custom-built Woodland Stage.
