Circuit3 at 4 on the Oxjam stage has a whole 80s Berlin synth pop thing going on. Check it out.

lads..anyone know if you can get to the yellow car park if you drive thru stradbally from the M7, or will you be forced into green/red??

sadie06 · 02-09-2016 09:29AM

Have fun all. Make the most of it…this is why we all work, to enjoy great times like these.

Likely forced.

Family parking is close to the church. Just follow instructions and directions.
Anybody short a cart. If you are in family camping you can buy one from tobywagons.com

Villain · 02-09-2016 09:49AM

Got into Green Carpark very easily about 9:45, getting busier now as I make the trips to and from the Pink moon camp site.

Site is good at present but some areas will get very mucky tomorrow especially if we get the heavier showers.

Going live on Facebook with a forecast in a few mins.

rameire · 02-09-2016 09:54AM

Family camping has a steady flow. From parking to camp is 12 minutes.
Grass is wet. Bit ground is solid and dry.

Not sure if this was posted, but no harm if it was. I found some cracking bands/artists to see

IamMetaldave · 02-09-2016 10:12AM

Calm before the... I won't say storm.

drunkmonkey · 02-09-2016 11:05AM

Tea-a-Maria · 02-09-2016 11:32AM

Garda letting people down the n80 at junction 16, 4km tailback outside stradbally.

grudgehugger · 02-09-2016 11:45AM

Exited N7 at Kildare Village. Got to Stradbally via Kildangan and Vicarstown.

Entering Stradbally suburbs, Garda sent us down a boreen which came out onto s wider road.

Hit what is basically the car park queue with approx 2k to cover. Halfway!

schemingbohemia · 02-09-2016 12:11PM

We're driving to Carlow (from Dublin) to stay in a B&B and then either driving over today or getting a taxi - if driving will we be forced to Timahoe Road car park even though our tickets state we've to use Abbeyleix entrance?

02-09-2016 01:05PM

Landed... Staying in boutique...managed to park in yellow car park. The job.

Sun shining. Have a ball everyone. It's gonna be a good one

Amirani · 02-09-2016 01:18PM

On the bus en route now. Have a ****ing class weekend everyone!

Cavan Bear · 02-09-2016 01:44PM

Got there and back no problem...I was just designated Dessie. Took no time from Rathmines. We left about 10:45 am and I was heading back by 12:30. Hope you all have a great time and thanks again to everyone on here for the brilliant information.

Charlie · 02-09-2016 01:51PM

Guards seemed to be very wise to Dubs Green Parkin it. Any roads I tried to turn in to from Junction 15 had a Guard on it and was only allowing local traffic. Everything diverted to put you back into the Red.

This would have been at around 11am. Must have had to be up early to beat the bacon.

jadie · 02-09-2016 01:52PM

not landing there till after 9 tonight looking forward to setting up tent in the dark:eek:, best car park for Janis Joplin site, red I guess? coming from Portlaois side

heebusjeebus · 02-09-2016 02:53PM

Hendrix is full up or so I hear from the stewards as I walked through.
Yellow car park is the job by the way. Nice and quiet with no queue.

everlast75 · 02-09-2016 02:54PM

massive queue outside pink moon. having a can while waiting... eta 45 mins before getting in:-/

Pickpocket · 02-09-2016 03:00PM

H8GHOTI · 02-09-2016 03:52PM

Over 35,000 through the gates already apparently.

heebusjeebus · 02-09-2016 04:06PM

Eh, can't find pieminister. What's going on!

Pickpocket · 02-09-2016 04:07PM

Don't laugh, but is there any non-alcoholic beer being sold this year?

mfield · 02-09-2016 04:08PM

Hey lads,
