Bell X1, The Coronas, The Frank & Walters, Roisin O, Aslan, Tolü Makay, Jerry Fish and Lyra are among the headliners lined up for Autumn Air, a new festival set to take place in September.

Organisers of Cork-based summer festival Indiependence announced they are returning to Mitchelstown, Co Cork from September 8 - 12 with a series of gigs this year with Autumn Air.

Wild Youth will bring the festival to a close on Sunday night with special guests and recently reunited band, Royseven.

Special guests over the five nights include Moncrieff, Emma Langford, Lorraine Nash, D. Cullen, Brad Heidi, Stevie G and more.

"It's a real pleasure to bring more quality artists and some old friends back to Mitchelstown for Autumn Air," said Shane Dunne, MD of INDIE.

"It's where we started and it's a special place for everyone who has played here, been to the festival and had good times with us over the years.

“A huge thanks from us all at INDIE to the venues and everyone in Mitchelstown who have made these amazing shows happen, we hope you enjoy them.

"It's good to be back."

The concerts will be run based on public health guidance at the time of the event. Tickets will be sold in pods of 4 or 6. The lead booker will be asked to provide contact information for any potential contact tracing.

Tickets for Autumn Air go on sale Friday, July 30 at 9am and are available here.
