emerging artists competition
We’re bringing The Doss House experience to Misneach Festival with an exclusive Doss House Seisiúin Area in the heart of The Domain, celebrating the very best of Irish culture, tradition, and music. Expect a line-up of emerging Irish & local talent, premium Irish spirits, Guinness on draught, and exclusive handcrafted cocktails.

The winners will be handpicked by Doss House together with the management team of Dermot Kennedy himself.
Internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter Dermot Kennedy started his journey as a busker on the streets of Dublin. With a deep appreciation for emerging talent, he has a passion for supporting the next generation of Irish & local musicians.
