About

Dublin City Soul Festival is all about making a positive impact on the local community. As part of our desire to effect positive change we have established the Musical Youth Foundation (MYF) – an organization that seeks to provide free musical instruments and tuition for underprivileged children from Dublin. In due course it is hoped that the Musical Youth Foundation can set up satellite groups in major cities across Ireland.

Aside from independent fund raising initiatives the MYF will benefit from the future financial success of the Dublin City Soul Festival with a percentage of ticket sales revenue going directly to the MYF in due course. Furthermore it is hoped that the MYF can encourage Irish concert promoters to follow suit.

Long term we aim to establish a Music Academy in Dublin City, where children can practice their instruments, establish bands with  friends and receive mentoring from industry experts, in a safe and secure environment.
