Another Love Story Festival 2026
At Killyon Manor · Hill of Down, Enfield, Co. Meath
At Killyon Manor · Hill of Down, Enfield, Co. Meath
Another Love Story is a boutique music and arts festival that has quietly built one of the most loyal followings in the Irish festival calendar. Now in its 12th year, it draws people who are done with muddy mega-festivals and want something smaller, friendlier, and far more carefully curated. The setting is Killyon Manor, a 60-acre estate near Enfield in Co. Meath - part 18th-century house, part wildflower meadow, part woodland, with a river running through it. The estate has won awards for its biodiversity work, and that commitment to the land shapes the whole atmosphere of the weekend.
The main programme runs Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 August, with Saturday opening at midday and Sunday wrapping at 7pm. There is also a limited-capacity Friday Night Early Access concert on the 21st, available only to those who hold a full weekend ticket.
The 2026 lineup centres on electronic music with genuine depth. UK drum and bass legend LTJ Bukem closes the Further Afield stage on Saturday. DJ and selector Bradley Zero plays alongside him. House duo Steffi X Virginia appear, as does dub producer Mad Professor in a hybrid live and DJ set. Cork band The Fynches bring a 70s-flavoured alternative flavour, and A Cosmic Tribute to the Sun Ra Arkestra and Vincent Moon Live Cinema round out a programme that rewards curiosity. Further acts are still to be announced.
Beyond the music, the grounds themselves are part of the experience - meadows, woodland paths, and a relaxed pace that encourages lingering. Camping and glamping options are available for those staying overnight on Saturday. Campervans require a separate pass and designated parking.
Killyon Manor is at Hill of Down, roughly 10 km from Junction 10 of the M4 motorway - about 50 minutes from Dublin city centre by car. Enfield village is the nearest town and has a regular train connection on the Dublin Sligo line (Iarnród Éireann, roughly 45 minutes from Connolly). A dedicated shuttle bus - the Love Bus from Dublin - is planned for 2026; check anotherlovestory.ie for release dates. On-site parking is available but spaces may be limited; early arrival is sensible.
Enfield sits on the edge of the Royal Canal, with a pleasant towpath walk east and west. The surrounding north Meath countryside is open and unhurried, good for a morning drive before or after the weekend. There is more to see in Enfield and across Co. Meath.
