The Meatopia food, beer & music festival is coming to Dublin

Having already wowed ‘em in London and New York, the food festival for “carnivores with a conscience”, Meatopia, makes its Dublin bow on July 1 and 2 in Guinness’ Open Gate Brewery, which means that there will also be lashings and lashings of beer from not only Arthur J, but also a range of Irish and UK craft producers.
“Every piece of meat on offer will have been raised naturally, lived the best of lives and be totally and utterly hormone, antibiotic and cruelty free,” reads their mission statement. “Our animals will all be native and rare breeds. Bred, raised and butchered locally to where they lived, and sourced from as nearby as possible.”
Add in an "eclectic programme of music events" over the weekend, and it sounds like a sure-fire winner.
