Toales Venue in Dundalk is ready to rock with its grand opening this Saturday, May 13th.

The venue in Crowe Street boast a top of the range PA system for bands and artists performing, along with a bigger stage and lights.

And there is no need for bands to bring their own gear to their gigs any more, as the venue has a full selection of professional level guitar amps, bass amps and drum kit.

Toales Venue is run by Philip Kirk of Karrier fame, who supported Pink at Malahide Castle in the '00's, and Dermot Lambert, the platinum selling frontman of Blink and the owner of Garageland.

Dermot recently received the IMRO Awards for Outstanding Contribution to Live Music 2023.

Together, Philip and Dermot have a vision to make Toales Venue a centre for emerging artists in the North East, as well as an alternative live setting for established touring artists, in an exciting and intimate setting.

The launch gig this Saturday, May 13 will feature a variety of local and national acts, followed by more music on Sunday.

Admission is free for both days.

Toales Venue is inviting music lovers of all genres and ages to come and experience the new home for live music in Dundalk.
