    yea same question about camping. Any chance you clould arrive sunday with a tent and get away with it? Its either that, car or don't sleep.
    Unless you're working the next morning, or you've got narcolepsy, you don't really have much excuse to sleep if you're just down for one day.

    Probably a stupid question but do day tickets include camping?


    Guys you should be able to camp in the same area where the camervans are.

    No security pass required here as it's a small field on the left before ticket pass. Fair enough you dont have the shower facilities but there is jacks but they were mank enough.

    A few bands did last year and I ended up there on the last night. Good nights sleep though mind!

    I've heard that the Coronas are the surprise act... I'd love if it was someone like the 1975 though!

    Ya i think one of the organisers is a manager of coronas or something. Prob don't want it announced as it would affect their ticket sales elsewhere

    Is it going back to how it was a few years ago? It was a better layout then.

    They've rented adjoining fields for parking/camping etc.

    Yeah I think I had to park in the gaa pitch car park last year, which was a treck. The year before that everyone just parked along the road which was grand. That'll be a good improvement if parking is closer.

    Hi, a friend of mine is on the guest list but can't go anymore. She's emailed them but don't think she's heard back yet. Anyone know if she'll be able to change the name on the guest list?

    Thanks

    Just found out I was getting tickets to this yesterday, so I'm extremely behind on looking into new artists to get into...! Any suggestions of some atypical genres? Some trip-hop acts? Post/math rock?

    It says on Tickets.ie that day tickets for Sunday are not available, were they ever available?

    What type of set up is it? I've heard that it's two stages and a dance tent, is that true?

    Sunday day tickets are sold out.

    The year I was there it was 2 main stages (and other small ones dotted around) and a dance tent.

    I'd say it's something like Silent Disco, Comedy tent, DJ tent, Irish tent, sub main/electronic tent and main stage.

    Stage times are this evening supposedly so it should all become clear.

    Specialized Security have been used for most festivals and outdoor gigs that I've seen run by MCD and FR over the past couple of years, so if I'm not mistaken, it's probably them. Scottish company I think.

    I find that they do really take their job seriously, and I definitely feel safer with them around then I did at previous festivals. They're a bit of craic if you're not out of your mind/acting the prick.

    Ah no granted they do their job well but I have to laugh at them, seen them running their hands through peoples hair looking for 'contraband' before..
    the f*ck lads, ye think this is a prison or something?

    What do people make of the Drink allowances, web site says your allowed only one bottle a spirits or a slab a cans, I can hardly imagine them enforcing this, what about people who dont like drinking cans? My gf doesnt drink cans or spirts only wine, so does that mean she can only enter with one bottle a wine for the weekend?? I know theres a supervalue nearby but if im in the middle of the festival experience i dont want to have to leave and go back to reality to get more drink! i recon ill risk it, have a bottle a spirits in with my tent or something!

    I'd imagine like other festivals that have that disclaimer on their site, it won't be enforced. I heard that was the case with body and soul anyways.
