Platform for Irish culture

333.3 marks the next chapter: The evolution of an event into a recurring cultural platform with its own identity, audience and community.

A snapshot of Ireland now

At the heart of 333 is a simple proposition: Culture comes from people and communities, not from institutions alone, the event organisers explained.

The programme reflects Ireland’s wide creative landscape rather than importing a conventional festival format into the city.

Having sold out the first two releases with a single save-the-date Instagram post, the first-tier announcement line-up brings together a broad spectrum of creative voices, including acclaimed DJ, producer and composer David Holmes, broadcaster and music curator Donal Dineen and celebrated filmmaker and artist B+.

They will be joined by Dandilion (Dublin), Emmy Shigeta (Japan/Dublin), Hewan (Ethiopia/Dublin), Ricky Chong (Cavan/Belfast) and Paudi Cronin (Kerry), creating a programme that connects different generations, disciplines and cultural perspectives.

Film will also take centre stage with the B+ Dublin Premiere.

B+ is the moniker of Limerick photographer, film maker and director Brian Cross who has worked with the likes of Biggie Smalls, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, Lauren Hill and more.

Dean Group noted that it ‘believes that hospitality can be about more than accommodation, it can create spaces where people meet, ideas develop and culture happens.333.3 is an expression of that philosophy.’

Chefs Jess Kai (Galway / New Zealand), Patrick Powell (Mayo / London), Patrick Maher (Dublin), Robin Gill (Dublin / London), Michael Nagle of Oifig An Fish will also be turning the coffee kiosk into Crab Shack, as well as the Pietro Paoli and The Devlin team will collectively ‘contribute to a programme that places food alongside music, art and conversation.’

Together with the musical and artistic line-up, ‘they form part of a wider cultural programme designed around collaboration with artists invited not simply to appear, but to help shape the experience.’

From 333.0 to 333.3

The story of 333 is also ‘one of evolution’.

333.0 began with a question: could a hotel become a home for Dublin’s creative community?

333.1 provided the first answer, establishing an appetite for something beyond a conventional festival.

333.2 expanded the idea, bringing deeper programming, multiple floors and a stronger connection to Ireland’s music, food and creative communities.

Arveene, the event curator, said: “Focus is less on simply assembling a line-up and more on asking what is happening in Ireland right now and bringing together the people who are part of that story.”

Ireland, under one roof

At a time when cultural scenes can feel increasingly fragmented, 333.3 creates a space where different communities can meet.

Club culture can sit alongside cinema. A chef can share a space with a filmmaker. Established artists can appear alongside emerging voices. Conversations can become collaborations.

And a hotel can become, ‘for one day, something entirely different.333.3 | The Devlin Dublin.’
