Citrus Fresh, Joviale, 1000 Beasts and more to play The Bernard Shaw's Racket space

The Bernard Shaw's new Racket space kicked off on August 12th with performances from Hazey Haze, Craig Cooney KhakiKid, Bricknasty and more.

"As we come into the winter we are very excited to announce our new venue space in the basement of the Shaw that we’ve been working on for near eternity," the Bernard Shaw wrote on their website at the time. There’s been setbacks and delays to beat the band but there’s light on the horizon and we are on course for a full launch in September."

"As well as hosting gigs, the space will also feature a studio for artists to record music and a lifestyle shop during the day selling everything from records & prints to candles & threads. On this, we hope to try and stock as many Irish brands as possible so if you know of any, or run one yourself, let’s chat!"

Coming up on the eclectic, massively exciting line-up in the coming weeks is London multi-disciplinary artist Joviale (September 23), Irish cloud rapper Citrus Fresh (September 17) and Birmingham producer Jossy Mitsu (September 14). Limerick rapper Hazey Haze will also take to the event space stage on October 10.

The fresh space for music and cultural launches was announced earlier this month on social media by the bar.

Introducing @the_racket_space: a new events space in our basement - think music venue, recording studio, exhibition space, a parties room, lifestyle shop & more," The Bernard Shaw posted to their Instagram page.
