    YES FESTIVAL 2009
    THE EPICENTRE / EASTPOINT BAR & VENUE
    EASTPOINT BUSINESS PARK D3
    SATURDAY SEPT 26TH
    3 ROOMS. OVER 25 DJS AND LIVE ACTS
    BBQ. DRINK PROMOS & MORE
    DOORS 1PM. ADM 20E INC SHUTTLE BUS


    Ah today’s media and the constant barrage of bad news, minus craic some would say! And as the country continues to spiral downhill even further into even more bleak times for many, we try our best to keep our heads up and continue on our quest to find our own fun wherever it may be...

    Well thankfully this September 26th you won’t have to dig too deep to find what we hope will be an exceptionally good day out and one that will hopefully put all of the country’s problems at bay (well at least for a few hours). YES the rumour is true, and YES the excitement is already building as we can thankfully say that YES the large scale daytime dance event is back!


    WHEN?

    This September, Saturday 26th, Al Keegan (Mixed Salad / Rubberband / Aciitone) will team up with Lil Dave Redmond and Al Kennington (Nightflight / Airbound / Hang Tough) to put together an all day dance event that has plans to compare somewhat to that of the hay day of the infamous Mixed Salad events that where infamous among the youth of yesteryear. Joining forces, ideas, music tastes and even make up tips (sure how do you think we met) both crews combined experience means YES Festival is a must for this year’s events calendar. It is as we thought, the perfect way to wave goodbye our "summer" and say hello to the good times that the college year has to offer just before things get as you student types would say "serious". YES!

    WHERE?


    The event will take place in The Epicentre, Eastpoint Business park, D3, located literally 5 minutes from the O2 arena, a mere 25 minutes walk from Dublin city centre, one stop on the dart from Connolly to Clontarf Road and an easily split 12e taxi fare away from the quays. The venue is an impressive space, one of Dublins finest untapped resources, offering a larger club room which will host the finest house, tech house and techno from some of Dublins finest. A large smoking area / cavern style space which will double up as our mash up room, hosting a mash up of styles and DJs. Plus a specially setup outdoor marquee similar to that used at life festival 08 / 09 which will be the buzz fest section, offering lesser house and techno to keep things grooving. But no need to worry about the weather as it will simply be an add on to the venue on the day with access straight from the venue to the outdoor space to keep us all nice and cosy! We will also have a variety of lovely food for sale and some other treats too to keep all entertained in one way or another so no worries! YES!

    HOW?

    The event will kick off at 1pm with a host of Dublin DJs and Live acts all under one roof for what's sure to be the perfect end to summer 2009 and possibly even the start of something special for 2010. For those travelling via the dart which is highly advised and the recommended mode of transport, it’s simply one stop from Connolly station, get off at Clontarf Road where we will have party bus service running throughout the day to bring you straight to the event! The party will finish at 11pm and shuttle busses will run until last dart at 11.30 back to the train station. We will also have taxis outside to make things as easy as possible to get into town after for our after party that will take place in true rock and roll fashion in Pygmalion on South William St. Just as we did in the oldskool we will keep the vibe going until the early hours for anyone interested! YES!

    So down to brass taxes, Admission for the event will be 20e which will include your bus transfer from the dart station to and from the event. You can pay at the door but tickets and capacity are limited so advanced tickets are advised to guarantee entry on the day. I think they will sell like hot cakes as we have already had lots and lots of interest for what's sure to be one of the summer’s finest outings so don’t hang around, tickets go on sale Monday Aug 31st!

    Tickets are available from City Discs, Spindizzy and Beatfinder Records priced 20e + BF.

    So please if you think your crew will be into this one, help spread the good word, anyone who sends this mail to 20 or more friends and CC’s YESFESTIVAL@GMAIL.COM will be entered into a draw for a FREE double pass! We have over ten double passes to give away in the next 4 weeks so chances of winning are a pretty high so in the wise words of Frank Sinatra "start spreading the news"!
