stage times being circulated are being released /drip fed (exclusively) by Irish Times .. they are genuine.

Seems odd EP wouldn't have them up on their own site. Usually a week before the festival so bit later than usual too

They'd want to make sure they get those tickets out asap. Nothing worse than if replacement ones werent out in time. Is there any pattern on what tickets they are that are affected or is it just random?

Seems to be "Family Instalment" ones.

Has anyone received the email that are no "Family Instalment" ???

I paid by installments but just for regular camping, no text or email though thankfully.

it's been drip-fed by the Irish Times on the week of it for the last few years...

Ah I'm out of look thought I'd been more recently but guess it's been 2 or 3 years since last one. It's a fairly annoying way to do it

Few people on one of the FB groups claiming the replacement tickets they received had a barcode, whereas the originals didn't. Anyone experience that?

I have been onto ticket master last couple of weeks... it seems only one batch of tickets had no barcodes they were family camping instalment plan and these are now being reissued with barcodes making the others void... I would say if you bought tickets online from someone and they have no barcode get in touch with them now....

Got the new tickets this morning. Comparing the 2 tickets....the first set don't have any barcodes on them. My tickets are for family camping.

Just checked our tickets and they have a barcode so hopefully ok. Noticed the early entry passes don't though - anyone else with an early entry pass does yours not have a barcode either?

So unless anyone has a barcoded ticket and is getting a replacement it looks like that's the magic formula? Easy to avoid being scammed if so.

Are many of you Boardsies staying in Pink Moon? Just wondering - as we could be talking here for months - and sleeping in the next hut? And is the proposed Meet Up taking place in Trailer Park or Salty Dog? Counting the hours in office now...…………… Judes

the touts will start stamping barcodes onto them

I can't imagine a tout being so unscrupulous

Pink mooner, it's a very very large area if you've not been there before, think salty dog is still the preferred failed meeting spot

and I for one am not slapping a sign on my tent saying "Hi I'm from the internet", that's a total neddy no no

Just Randomly Shout "Boards" until there a large enough group of us together, than we can fend off the norms with our mechanical keyboards.

Anyone ever manage to get car in beside campervan in campervan site? How?

Asking for a friend.

Is it just the Main Stage, Body and Soul and Electric Arena you aren't allowed to bring drink into?

i.e.
Can you bring drink into Rankin's Wood, Salty Dog and Jerry Fish Electric Sideshow?

No. Rankin woods and Jerry are inside the main arena.

Salty Dog is outside. There are other areas outside, like Trenchtown and Little Voices*

*(I think)

The rest - no.

The only stages you can bring booze pre-1am is Other Voices, Trenchtown, Anachronia & Salty Dog...although there may be a tiny stage i'm forgetting there!

Rankin's wood & Jerry Fish are in the main arena.
