Just because summer is over it doesn't mean the music festivals are.
And thank goodness for that!
One of Ireland's biggest (and most unique) music festivals, Metropolis will be coming to the RDS in Dublin from the 3rd to the 5th of November..
This year the lineup looks particularly impressive, so much so that we are itching to go already.
Here are the acts we are the most excited about.
Grace Jones
The queen herself. Is there anything Grace Jones can't do? We can't wait to see the disco powerhouse take to the stage on Saturday the 5th. Get ready to shake your booty.

Jack Garratt
We love Jack! It's as simple as that. The man himself will be playing on Friday and he is guaranteed to get a massive crowd. We're really excited to hear the whole audience sing Surprise Yourself.

The Sugarhill Gang
The 1970's hip-hop group is best known for their song Rapper's Delight which topped the charts back in 1979. They've had lots of great tunes since then and we can't wait to hear them play in Ireland.

Groove Armada
The English electronic duo is coming back to Dublin with a bang. You'll know them from their songs, I See You Baby and Superstylin. Just imagine this song playing at a festival, unreal!
