Marcus Goodwin of Bulmers said, "Anyone who made it to Bulmers Forbidden Fruit in 2012 will understand the unique appeal of this urban festival, right in the heart of Dublin. With such diversity of music, comedy, the arts, and food, there’s a really great vibe to Forbidden Fruit and Bulmers will again do its bit for festival goers by laying on a bus to make the festival experience even more enjoyable and accessible. Packed into the June Bank Holiday weekend, we look forward to Forbidden Fruit kick-starting a real Bulmers summer."

Declan Forde of Pod added, "We're excited and delighted with the bill this year. Getting an act of the stature of Kasabian is a real coup and we’re fortunate that they wanted to play what is a relatively small festival for them. As with the previous two years, we've aimed to keep the bill for Forbidden Fruit as interesting and diverse throughout the two days from start to finish. Roll on June 1st & 2nd."

The festival combines music, art, fashion and simple good vibes. The event will also offer food markets, fashion stalls and more.

Early bird tickets go on sale tomorrow at 9am. Day tickets are priced at 44.50 euros, a weekend two day ticket is priced at 79.50 euros. To buy tickets then, click here.
