The groundbreaking all-ages festival will return to Dublin with a stacked line-up of up-and-comers later this month.

BASED is set to return to the Button Factory in Dublin on June 23 with its sophomore line-up, which features a string of Irish stars on the rise including Thanks Mom, Taiyo, The Marks, Dopamine, Bioluminescence, DC Dolls, Garvan Lambert, The Blackpits and What If.

An all-ages music festival designed to provide a platform for the newest generation of emerging talent in Ireland, BASED answers the nation-wide call for more inclusive and accessible live music events for younger audiences.

After the success of its first run last year, BASED is back and better than ever, with two stages and a host of diverse indie rock acts from across the country. Presented by Fluttertone, the festival was inspired by a passion for nurturing young talent and music lovers, breaking down barriers while addressing the lack of safe shows for the next generation.

“I’ve seen so much talent in bands that are up-and-coming but can’t get opportunities to play because they’re not 18,” said Fluttertone director Colm.

Tickets for the upcoming event are available here starting at €15.76.
