Indiependence, which is celebrating its tenth year in Mitchelstown, is one of Ireland’s festival success stories over the last decade, growing from its initial capacity of 3,000 at Deer Farm into an event which now hosts 15,000 people.

“This will be our tenth INDIE at Deer Farm so we’re planning on making it very special. We’re changing things up a bit and improving the site as we’ve done each year. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone back in Mitchelstown in 2019,” said INDIE’s Michael Maher.

Previous line-ups have included Public Enemy, Manic Street Preachers, Hozier, Walking on Cars, Basement Jaxx, Bastille, Kodaline, Picture This, De La Soul, Editors, The Coronas, The Dandy Warhols and 2018 headliners Primal Scream.

INDIE19 will see more improvements to its attractive VIP area, releasing the same number of tickets but doubling all facilities and increasing the camping space.

Ticket prices remain at 2017 and 2018 levels for those choosing to purchase early, before they go to full price on January 1.

Tickets go on sale on Saturday at 10am from tickets.ie and a special pop-up at Walsh’s bar in Mitchelstown. Early bird tickets start at €109, while Tier 1 VIP tickets are priced at €169.
