Join us for wanderlust - Common Ground: a dance-disguised walk in the woods in aid of Doras and the Liberty Soup Run.
Put simply, it’s a walk in the woods. The difference? Everyone will be listening to the same set in their headphones pulled together by some of Ireland's best artists. This time, wanderlust steps out of the woods and into the heart of the city, moving along the Grand Canal to an audio backdrop curated by Dublin-based DJ JWY.
After a busy festival season and back to back club dates, JWY, with roots in Ghana, India and Surinam, has pulled together a thoughtful mix weaving themes of unity, community and change.
"I wanted to create a mix that has a mix of drummy, bass and uk funky riddims, without realising it you'll be marching through the walk"
It’s a difficult time in Dublin, there’s no denying that, but we’re stronger together. Common Ground is where we meet. Where we take a minute to pause and breathe life into the city’s hidden corners and awaken its spirit.
Join us in a space of unity, where we dance not just for ourselves, but to reclaim our space, support each other, and create a conscious, collective community for change. Because Dublin and its issues won’t disappear, but neither will we.
What to expect?
- Movement and Grounding by Dalia of Ecstatic Dance Dublin
- Walk and Groove along the canal to JWY's audio back drop
Before finishing up at Portobello Square for:
