In the Meadows
An outdoor music day on the Royal Hospital Kilmainham lawns. In the Meadows puts a compact festival programme into a Dublin setting, with a line-up-led visit rather than a camping trip.

A new date is not yet verified
The official site still displays its 7 June 2025 programme alongside a later registration message. No future date or recycled artist list is shown here as confirmed.
Sources checked 24 September 2026A single day built around the music
The published 2025 programme brought Iggy Pop, Slowdive and other acts to Kilmainham. It shows the character of that edition, not a promise about who will play next. For a future visit, start with a dated line-up announcement and choose accommodation only once the festival day is clear.

What the published visitor guidance covers
The information page specifies over-18 admission, cashless payments and no re-entry. It also contains inconsistent opening-time and weekend wording, so this guide does not turn those legacy details into a future timetable. Keep the new edition’s ticket instructions as the final reference for your arrival.

Kilmainham, not the Iveagh Gardens
The venue is the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, home to IMMA, in Dublin 8. The published pedestrian approach uses the Military Road East Gate and says there is no ordinary parking at the venue. Plan the journey home before the last act and leave extra time around the entrance.
