CAN I BRING ALCOHOL TO OXEGEN?

Alcohol is permitted in the campsite only. All liquids must be in plastic bottles or cans. No glass is allowed in the campsite but liquids can be transferred into plastic bottles at the bottle decanting stations at the entrance to the campsite.

last time we were there was just for a day entry few years back... bottles and cans taken at security point... dont know if it would be different for camping though?

Dunnes were doing 12 cans of bulmers for €15 recently not sure if they still do...

Im bringing enough for the 1st day then getting the free shuttle to Naas every day to top up, much easier on your back and they usually have decent offers down there too.

24 cans slab of Tubgorg for €20 (4.0% but it doesn't taste bad. Also its a shrinkwrapped slap unlike the loose slightly cheaper lidl cans)

Anybody know where this offer is?

You're better off only bringing enough cans for the Thursday night and heading into Naas friday morning.
Carrying slabs of cans along with your tent and stuff from the car park to the campsite is some serious effort!

The shops in Naas had some great offers last year, and Lidl even ran a free shuttle bus from the town centre (Near to where the Oxegen shuttle bus drops you off) to the Lidl store and back again.

Unless you see some cracking deals before you leave for Oxegen, I'd get most of my booze in Naas :cool:

I was debating on that also, but may just take a suitcase for my cans etc.. And rucksack for the rest.. Think that should do the job :P.. It is quiet a pain though carrying the cans to campsite etc..

What time did you get the bus at?

We went in and got a breakfast roll every morning and it only took about 2 hrs at the most, including wandering around naas for a bit!

I was thinking about doing this, but I'm afraid all the offers will be gone/out of stock etc.

Shanee.

Thats in Lidl. Well the one in newbridge anyways.

I'm bringing a few trays of that too

mcgarry098

could you store your drink in the lockers up at oxegen to stop it getting stolen

Nemanja91

Supervalu had slabs of Bud for €24 while stocks last.

Cantona's Collars

Spar doing 24 cans of Carlsberg or 24 cans of cider for €24,

Aldi have 12 cans of Galahad for €7.99,it's actually pretty decent lager.

Chris Martin

Depending on intentions there..
If you're enjoying the experience and want to remember some of it and just get merry, I'd suggest a trip to Tesco, oddly Aldi and Lidl aren't great for Alcohol in my area...
Tesco though have loads, changes every few weeks...
Got Bud there recently but Miller, Stella, Sol, Hein and numerous spirits are on offer too.
However if you just plan on getting pissed fast,
Druids, Devils Bit & Kepplers - 6%
Strongbow & Mary's Dew - 5.5%
4 for 5 on all bar Strongbow,
Think thats 4 for 7.50..

Cost-wise though!
Second wind...

Dutch Gold & Bavaria and Biere D'Or (Tesco) - Next to nothing but taste like p**s
Can get some cheap lager from Lidl and Aldi too, about 4.3% standard..
Gets the job done though

ap1986

bavaria 8 for 9 !!!
