And since we're still a bunch of joy-crazy non-profit volunteers - we've found a way to make it Even Cheaper for you this year (if you buy early that is). Early Birds will get entry to the festival, camping and all the cookies you can eat for just €30! Latecomers get the same for the still-low price of €38 :)

Tickets are NOW ON SALE on Entertainment.ie - http://entertainment.ticketsolve.com/shows/873482845/events and will be on sale in person at our next show (Tuesday August 14th) - but if for any reason neither of those options suit you and you really really want to come - contact us at [email protected] and we'll see what we can do.

TELL EVERYONE. Like all the best festivals, The Secret Garden will be made by our wonderful audience :)

Milk & Cookies ♥'s you!
