We are a platform for many.​

Our ethos is rooted in HipHop culture. 

​

At 5th Element NI we aspire to bring people together. We believe the loneliness epidemic in Northern Ireland can be tackled by providing reason to socialise. We provide a safe and inclusive space for community groups and social projects, for the creatives, and the curious.  

 

We run inspiring events, host educational workshops,
provide outreach programmes and so much more.

Why
hiphop?

hiphop represents community

Hip hop as both a musical genre and a culture was formed during the 1970s when block parties became increasingly popular in New York City, particularly among African American youth residing in the Bronx. At 5th Element NI we continue to promote the importance of community projects that bring people together in order to drive community spirit in us all.
