Oxygen is an annual music festival held just outside Dublin. It’s similar to Glastonbury in setup, there are loads of stages, different tents, and a plethora of different kinds of music and activities going on all day and night. I went back in 2006 as myself and friends fancied something different from the usual. So, we all jumped on a plane and flew over to Dublin where we stayed in a luxury serviced apartment just by the River Liffey. It was a perfect event because it coincided with the World Cup final between France and Italy, which Italy went on to win, and the city was buzzing with French, Italians, English, Irish, and other nationalities all having a good time.
The event itself boasted acts such as Primal Scream, The Who, The Strokes, Kasabian, and James Brown and although it rained all day, it was well worth it. We got a free bus from the centre of Dublin to the festival and had a right laugh. We visited the Guinness museum and drank rather heavily, and I’d definitely recommend the event to anyone.
