A must-mark date on the record digger’s calendar, Independent Label Market returns to CREC warehouse for a second year to showcase labels and producers from the local area and further afield. This year brings some top-class collaborations: from the quality sound system courtesy of Sennheiser and Klipsch, the weekend soundtrack is provided by some of the city’s finest DJs and representatives from the attending 50 or so labels, to the live stream via Internet radio station dublab.es.

Keep yourself going with hot drinks from La Cherry Coffee, gourmet fish and chips from the Barcelona restaurant of the same name, a craft beer from Garage or something stronger provided by Coctelería Jägermeister. Fonts of all vinyl knowledge Discogs will be supporting throughout the two-day event, and for those who want to soak up the music beyond the 8pm finish, there’s an array of parallel events going on at some of the best venues around the city.
