    No they are saying no gas cylinders permitted at all..... anywhere

    Crazy , absolutely crazy 'rule' !!!!

    Whats stopping people in Campers just hiding the gas bottles? Are the security teams going to do a full search?
    I would be hiding my gas bottle ...

    Weather is improved today. Puffy white clouds, a few grey, sun peeking out , and not much wind. :p

    We have two people in our car staying in tangerine fields and one staying in general camping. Anyone with knowledge of the site know if the person staying in the general camping will be able to walk from entrance 2 through to the general camping area?

    If not what's the feasibility of driving to entrance 1, dropping off and then driving to entrance 2

    dunnes stores stephens green,

    Trespass in stephens green also have a 60%off sale. Better quality tents I imagine.

    Lots of camping shops in the city have both along with argos.

    Dealz even have both for sale at the moment.

    Halfords have half price camping gas at the moment! ;)

    No real update to the weather forecast I posted yesterday other than to say I'm now more confident about the Sunday prediction, and that Friday looks like it might actually be quite sunny in the afternoon, rather than the cloudiness it seemed there might be yesterday. Still a great looking weekend!

    Fufanu gone straight onto my list :)

    Once inside the site theres not much distance between the 2 campsites, BUT, it would depend on the people checking tickets at the entrances if they would allow someone who is supposed to enter via Entrance 2 , enter through entrance 1.

    On the road there is about 3km between the 2 entrances (both along the same stretch of road), and I don't know if they would allow traffic drive between the 2 entrances ?

    Does anyone know what is the story as regards leaving the campsite?

    I need to work on Saturday morning...... So I have emailed and tweeted ATN to ask if I can walk out of the campsite on Saturday morning down to Portlaw village.
    And what exit would I use ?

    No replies yet ......

    Yeah, nobody seems clear on that trek to Portlaw bit yet. I've been told that shuttles run between Portlaw and site from 12 in morning till midnight Friday and Sunday and until 1.30 am on Saturday. What happens outside those times? Can you walk it? Can taxis, minibus etc travel to site entrance?

    Yeah I'd like to know this too please. Will you update us if they reply? Could easily get a lift back into the city and shower, eat etc and get back in again that evening.

    Hi all,

    Looks like I will have 1 family camping ticket for sale if anyone is looking. I have asked and it can be used as family or exchanged on day for standard camping. I am going so can meet up close to the festival if it suits. Bought ticket in first release looking to get the money paid for it back. will take €150. If you know anyone looking let me know.

    Thanks all

    Chaka Chan finishes at midnight on the main stage, hopefully they'll run a little bit after that to give people a chance to see the entire gig.

    How strict do you think they will enforce the family rule of having an U12 with you for a Sunday day ticket? Based on other events run by pod.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,501 ✭✭✭PabloAndRoy


    Oooops ... for many of you it seems that the map for ATN in the Festable app is a map for B&S ... to fix this do the following:

    From the home screen, swipe across to the Tools screen and click Reload Map. That will fix it.

    I will hopefully get a better fix in the play store sometime later today.

    Sorry for that,

    I was going to PM you to say the map never appeared and Now and Next has disappeared.

    Don't worry about it at this late stage. The app still delivers the important stuff. :)



    .... First post on boards for me. Yay.

    Now.... Back to the packing....

    Im not sure what you're apologising for tbh :p You made a great app, that is perfectly usable and will allow me to see all the acts I want to see.

    I feel like you put this together just for us, and I appreciate you! Thanks!

    This has been asked before and the consensus was they will be strict

    They seem to be strict about it alright. I suppose you could try "My wife is bringing the kids later in the afternoon.. "

    Map is working for me now Pablo. Great app by the way.

    Yeah was at sing along social at Body & Soul and it was great craic, really got everyone in the mood for a good night!

    Last year some legend made a printable timetable for Electric Picnic here. Does anyone know how he might have done it or how a similar one could be replicated? I would be willing to put in the work but my Microsoft Office skills (or whatever he used) are lacking :p

    As I said yesterday I was going to attempt what Dudda did for EP last year. I have tried my best to make one that is somewhat usable (although not half as nice as Duddas!). One thing that is wrecking my head though is I can't get them to align perfectly when printing double sided.. If anyone has any information please let me know!

    Here is the link if anyone wanted to use it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1stjngxni2y92du/ATN%20printout.pdf?dl=0

    No. The buttons on the bottom are gone. :(

    Seriously, don't worry about it today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 300 ✭✭HarryTheSpider


    Could it be a version specific thing? I'm still on marshmallow.

    Even without them, it is still a great app. Thanks for the time and effort you are putting in to this. As someone said before, you should wear a sign over the weekend and people can buy you a pint. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,501 ✭✭✭PabloAndRoy


    No. The buttons on the bottom are gone. :(

    Seriously, don't worry about it today.

    Do you see the Now and Next if you load a different timetable, for say Beatyard? Your settings for ATN will be saved so you can just switch between them...

    I second that! So clear, simple, and easy to use. Thank you! As was said before it's much appreciated!
