It was always going to be a special moment for AVA Festival Belfast<\/strong> as they celebrated 10 years<\/strong>, and the momentous occasion did not disappoint. Bringing together 10,000 guests each day, over 70 local and international artists, hundreds of staff, local creatives and more at the Titanic Spliways – AVA 10 was a testament to the strength of the Irish music community, and those who have worked tirelessly to elevate AVA into a global movement. The theme for AVA 2024 was Unity \u2013 and that was felt fiercely across the weekend.<\/p>\n

Committed to continual evolution, AVA programmed some of the globe\u2019s leading acts for its 2024 edition, with the Main Stage, Pumphouse, Nomadic and Lookout all hosting killer acts across the weekend. BICEP\u2019S CHROMA show on Friday night as they mesmerised the crowd with high-octane sounds, angular visuals, jungle, breaks, house and more experimental beats. More main stage highlights came from Ross From Friends mixing Joy Orbison’s FlightFM’ with Madonna’s ‘Like A Prayer’ and the boss, the mighty Kerri Chandler closed the festival with the classic \u2018You\u2019re In My System\u2019 on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Over on the Pumphouse, Horsegiirl\u2019s incredible energy and fast BPMs sent the whole festival into a gallop, with the crowd and atmosphere going wild. Neffa-T and Flow Dan also won the crowd with a hi-energy dubstep and grime set, hosted by the OG himself. The Boiler Room stage was hosted by Belfast\u2019s MC EMBY across the weekend \u2013 with a huge B2B came in from Anz and Special Request on Boiler Room\u2019s Nomadic Stage, with other memorable moments from KI\/KI trance and high energy techno, and MCR-T with one of the most hype moments of the weekend.<\/p>\n

Across the whole site, production was levelled up with a new design, sound upgrade and take-on stages. In particular, the main stage\u2019s unique and angular design, plus the heavy-hitting Pumphouse created a more intimate vibe – all set in Belfast\u2019s iconic industrial backdrop. As the sun beamed down on Belfast City, the vibes were immaculate, complete with an installation from Heverlee and Craic Magazine, a fashion collaboration with Irish designer Robyn Lynch and even AVA\u2019s own face filter, available to try out on Instagram.<\/p>\n

\u2018We are blown away by this year\u2019s festival, the atmosphere, the artists, our team, partners, suppliers and most of all the crowd. We feel incredibly humbled by the last few days, and want to thank everyone involved this year and across the last ten years of AVA\u2019s journey.\u2019 <\/em>\u2013 Sarah McBriar<\/strong> (AVA Festival founder)<\/p>\n
