PsyCare Ireland, registerd charity and the leading festival welfare service dedicated to ensuring the safety and well-being of attendees, is proud to announce its upcoming benefit concert at Hen’s Teeth, Dublin 8, on Friday, May 16th, starting at 8 p.m.
This not-to-be-missed event will showcase an outstanding lineup of Irish electronic acts. Headlining is the internationally acclaimed Irish DJ, The Cyclist, whose psychedelic approach to many forms of electronic music from DIY busted techno, and gauzy melodic house submerged in tape distortion, to Jungle and Footwork sets the stage for an unforgettable night. Joining him are equally brilliant Kaycee and Governess, each bringing their unique flair and style to the event. Attendees can expect a fun night of music, dancing, community, and support for safer music events in Ireland.
Proceeds from the event will directly fund PsyCare Ireland's vital services. As a non-profit organisation, PsyCare Ireland is staffed by dedicated volunteers who provide crucial psychological care and education at festivals and events nationwide. The funds raised will enable PsyCare Ireland to continue offering 24-hour welfare services to those in need, including specialised substance crisis intervention and mental health support.
In addition to the electrifying performances, attendees can participate in an exciting raffle, with prizes including tickets to premier Irish music festivals like Ealu Le Gra, Another Love Story, Fuinneamh, and In The Meadows. By attending the benefit gig, guests enjoy a fantastic night out and contribute to a worthy cause that enhances the safety and well-being of festivals and events throughout Ireland. PsyCare Ireland aims to expand its reach and continue positively impacting the mental health and safety of festival attendees nationwide.
