AVA Festival: Stage times & important event info
Who's ready to rave 🙌
AVA Festival returns for its ninth year this weekend, to the iconic Titanic Slipways in Belfast once again.
This year promises to be extra special - not just because of the Ibiza sunshine - but because the festival will close on Saturday with a local female DJ Or:la.
On top of that, there’s also the introduction of brand new warehouse style PUMP HOUSE stage, promising to be home to audio-visual-alchemy across the weekend.

AVA has created an inclusive, vibrant, and celebrated space for talent to be nurtured from their DJ competitions to work programmes. We look forward to another year with AVA at the centre of Ireland’s thriving music movement.
This year's festival features four stages
Gates open at 1pm on Friday 2nd June
Main Stage - Peggy Gou, Central Cee, Or:la and Sally C will headline the main stage over the weekend
The Nomadic - Home of the Boiler Room, this stage is streamed live on YouTube for those who can't make the festival. What started off as a stage for local DJs to showcase their work, has now grown into a highly acclaimed and sought after spot on the lineup.
The Grasses - Welcomes some of the best live and alternative artists from across the world
The Pump House - If you're keen to check out the local music scene, head to The Baltic.
The festival isn't just for music lovers...organisers have curated a host of local culinary crafted food and drinks from Titanic Distillers Premium Irish Whiskey and Premium Irish Vodka, Belfast born Cocktail Keg, from the Belfast Woodfire Pizza, to Al Pastor Belfast, and much more.
As well as a host of visual artists and live acts, organisers have shared their final line-up before the event kicks off next week.
