For one night only, Originz music festival presents Dec Pierce’s Block Rockin’ Beats, Symphonic Ibiza Orchestra with special guest Rozalla and Seb Fontaine at the Gleneagle INEC Arena.

It takes place on Saturday, December 10 and features all the club classics, live DJs, a 25-piece orchestra, and six hours of dance floor fillers - this epic night out is guaranteed to get the festive party started.

Dec Pierce’s Block Rockin’ Beats first hit Irish airwaves in 2018, and its combination of classic '90s dance hits, timeless R&B and boundless hip-hop was an instant success to Irish audiences. In recent times, Pierce has taken the show to the masses, with live shows for thousands in venues up and down the country. 

The live show is a performance of the world’s biggest dance anthems featuring a DJ set, live tribal drummers and special guests.

Created in 2018 by DJ and Producer Andy Joyce, the Symphonic Ibiza Orchestra since its launch in the famous Ibiza Club Eden has gone from strength to strength. Symphonic Ibiza fuses a thrilling live Orchestra, DJ and vocalists with high tempo, heart pounding beats. ‘Everybody’s Free’ vocalist Rozalla joins the orchestra as vocalist on the night.

Former BBC 1 DJ Seb Fontaine has, over the past three decades, secured international acclaim pushing forward new music and bringing dancefloor nirvana to legions of clubbers. He has always taken inspiration from yesteryear, acid house sampling and distorting hip hop and disco, making Seb one of the leaders in the business.

Seated and standing tickets for Originz cost from €49.50 and go on sale via Ticketmaster. Patrons must be over 21 and valid ID will be required. For further information and to purchase tickets please see www.inec.ie.
