Forbidden Fruit 2019

    Meh, probably not enough to attract me to any of the days, if a couple of the right electronic acts were playing on the same day then maybe. Not interested in any of the headliners though.

    Jon Hopkins, Mura Masa, Maribou State, First Aid Kit, Mall Grab, Ross from friends all played festivals here in 2018, Elbow, Skepta, Danny Brown all 2017. Then again I was giving out about the Primavera lineup saying the acts are obscure :pac: maybe 2019 just doesn't have the acts touring!

    POD really pull from a small pool of artists.

    You'll see some of these pop up again in august for ATN festival.

    Id buy a day ticket if I saw the likes of NAO, Apparat, Modeselector announced for perhaps the Mura Masa day. Seeing Jon Hopkins at Mad Cool already.

    Was hoping for more of a crossover with All Points East in London on the Sunday. If I can get reasonable flights, would be very tempted to go. Get to catch all of these on the same day:

    Bon Iver, Mac Demarco, First Aid Kit, John Grant, The Tallest Man on Earth and Julien Baker,

    Already 9 names on that I’d see so a good start for me. A lot of those acts played here in the last year or 2 though

    Anyone know the difference between Tier 1 and Tier 2 tickets for this?


    Only a fiver in the difference, and as far as I know it's all standing anyway?

    Difference is price. That's all :)

    Is that really it?



    Some of these are for presents, I'd like to get the best available.


    Can't find info anywhere on it.....

    yeah.. that's it.

    WTF???

    Is it not a case of when tier 1 sells out then they move on to tier 2? A tiered approach to pricing of tickets? Other festivals such as Sea Sessions do this.

    Seems to be. By the time I'd worked that out (about 9.15am) tier 1 was sold out :mad:

    Anyone know when another announcement will be due?

    See Bon Iver, John Grant, Tallest Man On Earth, Julien Baker, Mac DeMarco and First Aid Kit playing All Points East festival in London the Sunday. FAK already coming over. Reckon a couple more will make an appearance?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,539 ✭✭✭ghostdancer


    dunno, but Field Day the weekend after announced their lineup earlier, probably a few off that:

    A new announcement is incoming as per their instagram.

    I reckon either this evening or before 1pm tomorrow.

    Cheers for that! Seems to be nothing on their fb or Twitter. Think they'd post there too..

    Very welcome

    Well they're advertising for Digital Marketing Interns.

    Pay peanuts (or nothing in this case) get monkeys.

    Just joking, i'm sure they're all very good at their jobs, I really feel this whole unpaid intern thing is taking advantage of people in artistic industries.

    Yeah it's dodgy alright when festival is a commercial entity. At least volunteers get tickets for their time but presumably a fraction of paying someone an hourly minimum wage..


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,619 ✭✭✭✭Eod100


    Guess there's no news on more acts being added?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,539 ✭✭✭ghostdancer


    better lineup (so far) at AVA up the road the same weekend IMO

    Yep agree ghostboy, don't think Forbidden fruit will be topping that. Have you (or anyone) ever gone to AVA? What's it like?

    Oooh that is a good lineup. Love to catch one of blawan’s sets again.

    Parklife happening five days after Forbidden Fruit, should give you an idea of some of the acts touring around then.

    AVA is brilliant! Probably the best festival In Ireland for electronic music. The Bicep boys have been involved with it since the very beginning

    Any hope of getting tickets for this anywhere :):)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭Ricosruffneck

    For free?

    Or through ticketmaster. There's loads left I think?

    Not great at all considering all that's touring in June

    Julien Baker added from All Points East. Wouldn't have minded Bon Iver or Tallest Man In Earth too. Maybe they will be at ATN? Don't think there's enough there to get me to go for a weekend or even a day tbh. Are many more acts expected to be announced?
