Forbidden Fruit 2018: Highlights

The sun has set on another year of Forbidden Fruit, and what a weekend it was. The weather was stunning which added to the good vibes. 

If you missed the festival or weren't there for the full three days, we've got you covered. Here's the best bits from the weekend. 

Saturday

Justice 

Justice headlined the main stage and rocked it. They brought their latest tour to us and performed for an hour and fifteen minutes. They played new material plus their classics like D.A.N.C.E and DVNO. 

 

We are.... #day1 #bulmersff18

Erica Cody 

She was unreal. Erica played the Bulmers 100% Irish Artists stage. Her cover of Say My Name was everything. 

 

The one and only @ericacody with her version of Say My Name on the @bulmersireland 100% Irish Stage at @forbiddenfruitfestival yesterday.

Sunday

Conor McGregor 

He wasn't playing a stage, but he stole the show. The Notorious Conor McGregor attended the festival and was mobbed. Even our Spinis got to meet him! 

 

Look who the Spinis just ran into at Forbidden Fruit 🍎 @thenotoriousmma enjoying the sun, scenes and music! 🍇

Vince Staples

One of the biggest names in rap drew crowds for his hour long set. We need him back in Ireland NOW.
