About

Welcome to Taking Up Space, an all-day festival taking over Belfast's Accidental Theatre to champion the fierce, fresh talents of artists from the North of Ireland.

This isn't just another festival, it's a movement dedicated to amplifying underrepresented voices, with a sharp spotlight on incredible artists who identify as FLINTA.

Expect an eclectic, high-octane lineup delivering fresh sounds, innovative styles, and boundary-pushing performances. We're breaking down barriers and building a thriving community where creativity, inclusion, and raw authenticity take center stage.

Taking Up Space is more than a gig; it's a celebration of equality, representation, and the future of Northern Irish Arts. Come through, celebrate diversity, and support the next generation of artists who are rewriting the rules.
