AVA Festival returns to the historic Titanic Slipways in Belfast on May 29–30, 2026, for its twelfth and most ambitious edition yet. As a premier celebration of Audio Visual Arts, the festival transforms the city's industrial docklands into a high-octane playground for electronic music enthusiasts.

Known for its world-class production and the iconic Boiler Room stage, AVA 2026 will feature a curated blend of international headliners and the finest talent from the Irish underground. While the 2026 lineup is yet to be revealed, the festival has a storied history of hosting icons such as Bicep, Overmono, Peggy Gou, and Honey Dijon, alongside local pioneers like Or:la and Kettama.

Beyond the music, the event encompasses a professional conference, immersive art installations, and a series of high-energy afterparties across Belfast's most beloved venues like Banana Block and The Telegraph Building.

Key Highlights:

• Industrial Venue: Set against the backdrop of the Titanic Belfast, offering a unique urban festival experience.
• Visual Arts: Cutting-edge stage designs and digital art installations that sync perfectly with the music.
• Community Focus: A platform that bridges the gap between global icons and local emerging artists.
