Films of Note Music Film Festival Dublin 2016

If you, like me, think that films and music are a perfect combination, that is an event that you will love! A month long celebration of music films. Documentaries, live concerts, biopics and uncategorisable marvels. The programme features old classics, new favourites, and a few films that deserve a wider audience. With pop, hip-hop, rock, punk, R&B, jazz and soul on the bill there is something to suit everyone.

Hosted over the month of July in the Sugar Club – and there could not be a better setting for a festival of this nature – with a beautiful atmosphere, great food and drink offers with custom cocktails and pre-show DJs getting everyone in the mood. And the night doesn’t not have to end when the credits roll as there will be plenty of after-film antics and late night parties to keep the feeling alive!
