- Oxegen est un festival de musique irlandais qui se tient chaque année depuis 2004 et qui est parrainé par Heineken. Il se dénommait auparavant Witnness et était parrainé par Guinness. C'est le plus grand festival d'Irlande. Oxegen était à l'origine un festival de trois jours, mais en 2008 il a duré quatre jours. Il a lieu en juillet à l'hippodrome de Punchestown dans le Comté de Kildare en Irlande et a une participation moyenne d'environ 90 000 personnes par jour. Des groupes tels que The Killers, Snow Patrol et R.E.M. se sont exprimés positivement sur leurs expériences au festival. Des célébrités ont souvent assisté au festival, parmi lesquelles les mannequins Helena Christensen et Glenda Gilson, une personnalité de la télévision américaine, Chris Pontius, l'acteur Josh Hartnett et Ronnie Wood de The Rolling Stones. Cependant, Oxegen a également attiré quelque publicité négative, particulièrement après le festival 2006. Cela est imputable à des facteurs tels que l'âge d'admission-17- et un accès facile à l'alcool. L'édition 2012 a été annulée et reprendra en 2013, comme Glastonbury Festival. (fr)
- Oxegen /ˈɒksɛdʒɛn/ was a music festival in Ireland, first held from 2004–2011 as a rock and pop festival and again in 2013 with dance and chart acts only. The event was regularly cited as Ireland's biggest music festival, and, by 2009, it was being cited as the greenest festival, being a 100% carbon neutral event in Ireland, although this claim is highly disputed as green-washing. It was previously called Witnness, which ran from 2000 and was sponsored by Guinness. The event is promoted by MCD and is sponsored by Heineken. Oxegen was originally a three-day festival, but from 2008 onwards, it was expanded to four days. It took place at the Punchestown Racecourse in County Kildare, Ireland and has an average attendance of around 60,000 a day, with around 50,000 of these camping on site for the duration, and the rest travelling to the site each day. It takes place on the same weekend as T in the Park in Scotland and shares a very similar lineup each year, but Oxegen is generally regarded as Ireland's version of the Glastonbury Festival, with the 2008 festival sharing three of the same headliners as its English counterpart. Oxegen has attracted significant attention from outside Ireland, with many of those attending travelling from overseas experiencing a "mass exodus" to the festival. Members of bands such as The Killers, Snow Patrol and R.E.M. have spoken positively of their experiences at the festival. Celebrities frequently attend, including models Helena Christensen (a regular attendant) and television personality Chris Pontius, actor Josh Hartnett, and Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones, who was pursued by "half the journalists in the country" and many of his own relatives for much of the 2008 festival. The event has also attracted some negative publicity, particularly following the 2006 festival. This is attributed to such factors as the age of admission (17) and easy access to alcohol. Oxegen, for two consecutive years, was named as the Best European Festival in a poll which included festivals from France, Netherlands, Spain, United Kingdom and other countries, leading The Sunday Business Post's Nicola Cooke to describe it as "one of the most successful music festivals in Ireland has [sic]". Leagues O'Toole has described it as an "enormously successful, award-winning, established brand [...] aimed at a young audience out for a good time, a post-Leaving Cert rite of passage perfect for acts with big singalong tunes that sound great in the mud". Oxegen received a mention in the Colum McCann short story "Aisling". In April 2014, organisers announced that the Oxegen festival would not be going ahead that year, citing a lack of suitable headline acts. (en)

- Oxegen is een jaarlijks muziekfestival in Ierland en is de opvolger van het muziekfestival . Hoofdsponsor Guinness stopte met de sponsoring van Witnness in 2003, de nieuwe sponsor werd Heineken en de naam van het festival werd veranderd naar Oxegen. Op het festival was tot 2011 rock- en popmuziek te horen, in 2013 zijn er alleen nog danceacts en artiesten uit hitlijsten te vinden. Het muziekfestival staat bekend als het grootste muziekfestival van Ierland en sinds 2009 ook als het groenste festival. Oxegen vindt plaats op het Punchestown Racecourse in County Kildare en duurt 3 dagen, tot 2007 duurde het festival 2 dagen. Het muziekfestival trekt jaarlijks zestigduizend bezoekers, waarvan er 50.000 op de campings verblijven. De eerste editie vond plaats in 2004 in het tweede weekend van juli. The Killers, die hoofdact waren in 2007 en 2009, waren een van de eerste bands die als eerste op Oxegen hebben opgetreden. In een interview met het Ierse muziekblad zei gitarist van de band het volgende: Oxegen is voor ons een belangrijk muziekfestival. Het was een van de eerste muziekfestivals waar we op gespeeld hebben nadat we uit Vegas vertrokken in 2004. We hadden maar één hit (Mr. Brightside) en we dachten dat er niemand zou komen opdagen. Maar, de tent was vol met mensen die teksten van ons schreeuwden waarvan wij dachten dat zij die niet kenden. Het was de avond dat we dachten van "Hé, hier gebeurt iets!". Oxegen was voor ons belangrijker dan het Glastonbury Festival. — , 3 juli 2009 (nl)
