Since its inception in 2019, The Great Oven has been forging giant, beautifully decorated, community ovens – installing them in refugee camps, conflict zones and informal settlements across Lebanon and South Africa.
This year, their mission is to expand to the West Bank whilst creating a cultural bridge between Palestine and a homebase in Ireland. Artists from both countries have been collaborating all year to construct two Great Ovens that will be decorated at IMMA, Irish Museum of Modern Art and unveiled at All Together Now 2025.

You’ll find them at The Great Oven Disco Cantina: a feast for the senses where festivalgoers can dance, dine and support the journey of a Great Oven to Palestine. An exceptional lineup of longstanding partners and allies have gathered all together now, to bring this vision to life.
Leading the Disco Cantina’s culinary experience is beloved Middle Eastern eatery, Tang who are shutting all their Dublin sites for the weekend to send their talented team to host this gastronomic extravaganza. Cherished recipes from Great Oven refugee cooks will feature alongside favourite dishes from the restaurant. Once a day, 100 diners will be given the opportunity to attend a DJ Banquet where special guests will perform a once-in-a-lifetime, intimate show at the cantina. The rest of the day Tang will be serving up a buzzy BBQ feast with freshly made Saj bread, all cooked live in this unique setting.
Bringing the disco is Palestinian radio station turned global cultural phenomenon, Radio Alhara. From day to night, DJs from Palestine and across the Middle East, along with renowned Irish and international acts, will spin a soundtrack of sonic solidarity. The entire experience will be captured and amplified by Mixmag, the world’s largest and longest-running electronic music platform. The Disco Cantina’s dancefloor will host Ireland’s first-ever Mixmag Lab, which will be streamed globally.
When the festival lights go out, the voyage of these Great Ovens begins. One will make its way to Palestine, where it will be housed at the Wonder Cabinet, a creative hub in the West Bank. The other will find its home at Dalymount Park, Bohemian Football Club’s historic ground. These twin ovens will nourish communities, honour shared struggle and will create a cultural bridge between Ireland and Palestine where recipes, art, music and solidarity will be shared for generations to come.
The Great Oven is a grassroots peace and prosperity building organisation that forges giant, beautifully decorated community ovens and installs them in refugee camps, conflict zones and informal settlements across Lebanon and South Africa. Providing sustainable food relief and creative community building by leveraging the power of cooking, art and music. Created for and by society’s most marginalised, the Great Oven champions local agency and ownership. Their work is shaped by the first-hand experiences of a diverse and talented team which includes refugee families, stateless youth and trafficked women.
The Great Oven sees a group gathering around an oven as an opportunity to address more than an immediate need for food. As hubs for cooking, teaching and sharing a meal, the ovens bring people together from disparate backgrounds who would otherwise not have the opportunity to meet. Beginning with cooking and moving beyond, they harness the power of art in its many forms from painting to music. Initiatives include the decoration of each great oven as well as the neighbourhoods they belong to, a process overseen by world-renowned artists who mentor local youth to help bring their vision to life.
Tang was opened in 2016 by siblings Stephen and Claire O’Dwyer. They now have three locations, all in Dublin city centre: Dawson Street, Abbey Street, and Cumberland Place, with a new restaurant, bakery and test kitchen opening this September on Windmill Lane in Dublin’s Docklands. Tang serves Middle Eastern inspired dishes with a focus on bold flavours and vibrant colours.
Tang is all about making people happy with food that doesn’t cost the earth. They are committed to continually improving and evolving the business to make it more exciting for their customers, supportive to their team and both local and global communities, all while working to minimise their impact on the planet.
Radio Alhara was founded by friends living in Bethlehem, Rammallah, and Amman and connects people across the world.
Launched in Palestine at the very beginning of worldwide lockdowns in March 2020, online radio station Radio Alhara provides a platform for discussion, listening, and community-building. The name, which translates to ‘the neighbourhood radio’, is reflective of the nature of the station itself: a close-knit community emerging from the margins, yet open and accessible to the world, bridging boundaries and geographic obstacles.
Mixmag is the world’s biggest, longest-running and most respected dance music media brand. At the forefront of every ground-breaking story, cultural movement or rising star’s trajectory, Mixmag is the electronic music authority for artists, fans and industry insiders across the globe.
The Lab is Mixmag’s flag-pole DJ streaming show. Starting life as an after-work party in the Mixmag London office, the world’s biggest DJs would come and play an exclusive set for the team and a select group of fans, streamed to millions of fans worldwide.
Since its launch over a decade ago, The Mixmag Lab has grown to operate in numerous global locations – including LA, NYC, Ibiza, Paris, Miami, Mumbai, Mapouto, Goa, Nairobi, Lagos, Cape Town, Detroit, Delhi, Sydney, Johannesburg, Atlanta and more. It is viewed as the world’s leading DJ streaming show for both superstar DJs and red-hot newcomers.
Bohemian Football Club has been a fan-owned club since its founding in 1890, based in Phibsborough on Dublin’s Northside. The club has a proud tradition of solidarity and social justice, particularly in support of Palestine which reflects Irish society more broadly. Flags have long adorned the terraces but in 2023, Bohemians released a jersey to raise funds for Palestine Sport for Life, with proceeds supporting girls’ football programmes in Tulkarem in the West Bank. A second jersey, launched in 2025 in partnership with Fontaines D.C., is raising funds for Medical Aid for Palestinians. In 2024, the club made history by hosting the Palestinian women’s national team for their first-ever match in Europe. Its latest initiative supports efforts to bring a girls’ team from Tulkarem to the 2026 Street Child World Cup in Mexico. The club is supported in these actions by the fan group “Bohemian FC Friends of Palestine”.
