One wildly talented winner will get the chance to perform live on the main stage at the renowned festival, taking place at Glendalough Estate in Co. Wicklow from June 21 to 23, as part of a line-up that includes electronic legends like Jungle, Soulwax, Marc Rebillet, and many more.

Through the competition, CUPRA – one of the fastest growing automotive brands in Ireland – is striving to showcase and celebrate the phenomenal talent that makes the Irish electronic music scene so special.

CUPRA has long been associated electronic music and club culture around the world – through acclaimed partnerships and collaborations with international heavy-hitters like Primavera Sound and Boiler Room. CUPRA's ties to the Irish scene run deep too, having partnered with one of the country's most iconic venues, the 3Arena, and, of course, Beyond The Pale.

To enter CUPRA's On The Pulse competition, submit a 30-minute mix before March 31, demonstrating your ability to captivate audiences and push the boundaries of electronic music.

Your entry will be evaluated by a panel of industry judges – taking into account creativity, technical proficiency, and overall impact.

As well as getting the chance to play at the festival, the overall winner will also receive an artist development fund of €2,500.

And that's not all! In the run-up to the festival, five finalists will be selected to perform at a special event at Yamamori Tengu in Dublin on May 23.

“We're thrilled to offer this opportunity, considering the thriving electronic music talent in Ireland," comments Robert Stapleton of CUPRA Ireland. "This partnership with Beyond The Pale is a testament to our commitment to the vibrant music scene.
