About ten miles from Dublin city centre, Marlay Park will soon be the venue for some great musical entertainment.

Throughout August, the park will host a month of concerts such as Muse, Metallica and the Killers, and the Lovebox Dublin Weekender will take place on the 23rd August.

Its better known London counterpart is scheduled for the 19th and 20th July, and will feature some amazing artists like Maximo Park, Paulo Nutini, Kid Creole and the Coconuts.

Other attractions will include an organic farmers market, a funfair and a childrens play area.

Lovebox is presenting a number of events this year as well as the London and Dublin festivals, including the Eden nightclub in Ibiza every Friday in September until the 19th.

Flights to Ibiza and Dublin are really cheap, so if you’re looking for a bargain holiday, this could be great for music lovers.
