Thanks to our partners ❤️‍🔥

This year marked our biggest and most ambitious programme of partnerships to date, from thought-provoking talks and forums to global broadcast collaborations, bold new stage designs, locally-led food experiences, custom merchandise partnerships and community-driven activations.

To every partner who brought their energy, creativity and support to AVA 2026: thank you. We couldn’t do it without you.

Shout out to:

Resident Advisor – our longest-standing friends since day one, we took things to the next level with our co-presented broadcast stage The Dock, sets released in the coming weeks.

PRS Foundation & PPL – powering this year’s forward-thinking Talks Programme at The MAC, recording at the AVA Pumphouse and supporting Northern Irish Talent through our Creators Forum supported exclusively by PPL.

Velo x Lab54 - the Anywhere House landed at the Slipways as AVA’s fifth and freshest stage, spotlighting local DJs all weekend.

Red Bull – always on point and our long-term energy partner, with a new customised bar right next to The Dock, and an evolving menu to match.

White Claw – premium hard seltzer bringing refreshing drinks and vibrant energy to festival moments.

Lyle & Scott – bringing elevated festival fits and heritage style, kitting out the dancefloor in timeless contemporary looks. Watch out for the content.

Asahi – Japan’s iconic super-dry beer brand, delivering crisp refreshment and elevated moments across music, culture and nightlife.

Jubel – fruit-infused lager made for good times, delivering easy-drinking refreshment across the festival weekend.

Wing It – Belfast’s cult-favourite chicken spot, serving bold flavours and festival fuel all weekend long.

Juice Jar – fresh juices, smoothies and healthy bites to keep festival-goers energised from day to night.
