This summer at Electric Picnic, we’re packing our mirror ball and hosting a late-night queer dance party in the woods of Stradbally. Join us on the forest floor as we bring together the best DJs, dance-party drag, and queer performers Friday, Saturday and Sunday night at the Picnic.
Every evening AFTER DARK, we’ll curate unforgettable late-night revelry courtesy of the wonderful Mother DJs, exciting guests and friends for a fantastic weekend of unbridled queer joy in the woods.
All weekend from 9pm- 4 am, Mother DJs Rocky T Delgado, Ruth Kavanagh and Ghostboy will be joined by a selection of our favourite guests including Billy Scurry, Claire Beck, Mini Kimono, Tara Kumar & Mango.
Joining our DJs is a delicious and talented cast of queer performers, dancers and drag queens. We are delighted to be joined by Pixie Woo, Anziety, Shaqira Knightly, Annie Queeries and many more.
We’re creating an unashamedly queer space at Ireland’s largest music and arts festivals. This ain’t no picnic, it’s a queer dance party.

Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Mother is a queer club institution in Dublin. A home for electronic, synth, disco and all things dancefloor ready. Every Saturday night we take over Lost Lane for our weekly club, creating a space where the music is upfront, the atmosphere is electric, and the door policy is simple: over 21, be sound, be yourself.
Across the year, we host some of the city’s most beloved queer gatherings, from our legendary Bank Holiday Sunday parties to our annual Pride celebrations, Daytime Dance Party series, and special one-off events.
Looking ahead to 2026, we’re expanding our calendar with new seasonal experiences including Imbolc and Halloween parties, alongside the major festival moments Mother has become known for. At the heart of everything we do is community, creativity, and the joy of coming together on the dance floor.
