    Any recommendations for Saturday? Didn't get down tonight in the end but there's nearly more I would have seen tonight than tomorrow..

    Can you use e-tickets here folks or do you need to print? Many thanks

    Very little searching going on, I've been in and out to our van a few times getting bits and bobs, not been searched, was bringing in one 1.5 litre bottle of booze one of the times and no bother.

    The place is absolutely full of children so it may not be for everyone.

    The festival itself is very very chilled out, less people, less noise, less queues for everything, the lineup is alright but the feel of the festival is making up for it, very chilled, lots of cool art installations, the location is absolutely perfect, the whole estate is beautiful, I can't say enough about the location, it's really beautiful.

    The campervan site looks jammers, family camping looks jammers, there's people arriving into the red entrance and need to get to the general campsite so they're trekking through the whole main arena with tents etc, messy.

    In all fairness to the organisers, everything seems to be going well.

    Lads hoping to be there for 11am. Getting worried about space for tents. Have a four man for three of us. Is it that bad??

    Very envious of people at this. Some of my favourite acts in the lineup.

    Would love to be seeing Maribou State, David August, Nils Frahm, Mogwai and many others.

    Enjoy, everyone!

    Are there people selling tickets down there? Still haven't sourced one but tempted to head down.

    Tickets still on sale.mate only booked one while waiting on the Jackson's last night!

    I don't understand how any of the camping areas can be overbooked if people had to pre-book tickets? How can that happen? :confused:

    I'd say people are being generous with space they're affording themselves, more than it being over-booked

    I've turned up late to body and soul a few times and they'd opened up another field. Surely they'll do the same here

    Grand but why? No capacity?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,992 ✭✭✭✭greenspurs


    Family camping is a joke too....
    Tents all over the place, right up on top of each other,
    'Security' lads yesterday evening ,while nice, weren't much use, and seemed to have left people just put their 6 or 8 man tents wherever they wanted to without any organisation..

    Amazing set up tho, great vibe.....

    I recommend the "Bear Grillz" burgers !!!!!!

    Is the capacity not 15000 this year?

    I heard 10,000, 15,000 would explain it so!

    It's fairly full, but also plenty g places where small groups have monopolised an absolute massive amount of space.

    VIP campsite is big and basically empty. They may have to open it up

    Where is the VIP campsite, i got my hands on guestlist wristbands so i take it i can go there. None of the organisers could actually tell us where to camp so we ended up in the general one.

    Seems mad they are still selling more tbh.. especially when there's no Sunday day ticket.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,757 ✭✭✭s8n


    I’m here in the VIP campsite, loads of room.

    Be there in the next hour. Have they opened up any more space for campervans?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,618 ✭✭✭erica74


    Why is it so fucking difficult to get water here?
    I can't seem to find anywhere selling the reusable cartons and nowhere is selling bottles of water.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,220 ✭✭✭maximoose


    My god Mogwai were fantastic, my poor ears.
