    Any tips on getting in contact with Pink Moon?

    Trying to transfer a booking to somebody else ... but no answer from them!

    Can't remember ever having to show photo id on check in?

    Any chance the rest of the times announced will be friday and Saturday only sunday already clash central. I am getting giddy and impatient now, akways happens when times released.

    And f**k the weather it will still be a blast (probably a bit rich as a non camper)

    they dont give a sh*t about names, as long as you have your booking ID,
    we share every year and usually arrive at different times
    they never ask any of us for ID, if you have the code thats all they want

    i think their official line on it is that they are non-transferable anyway,

    No EP yet on Festable? Does it not go up when there's a Clashfinder? Does the Clashfinder have to be complete? I should know all this at this stage.

    I've already got my schedule filled from 2pm to 4am on both Friday and Saturday. Happy to have further clashes with better bands but happy enough with what I'll see.

    No Frank & Walters for me in 2019. Rough clash for them with the Bunnymen and Strokes. There goes much of their audience.

    Clashfinder is still far from complete anyway, think Festable will work with what is there now but you might have to update or reinstall when the clashfinder is finished for all stages to appear?

    It’s worse the forecast is getting, it will be cold Sat and Sun nights folks!

    I had to delete and reinstall, then it appears.

    Hi all, we're hoping to go, we have a car and caravan. Am I right in saying that we need a "car and caravan" ticket as opposed to a regular campervan ticket?

    Cheers :)

    In theory yes but many on here have got in with either I am told.

    Has anyone staid in the Rainbow Teepe or simular in Pink Moon (Specifically during Heavy Rain) looking at those charts for Friday and into Saturday anywhere from 5-12mm forcast hoping they have a good waterproof rating could be a wet one! Probably thinking into it too much...
    Are they single or double skinned?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 carneal


    we stayed in the two man ones for past 2 years once during very heavy rain and we were dry..i think it may get abit nippy at night tho..

    Double skinned, make sure they're pegged down properly, ours weren't one year and we got washed out of it, using them again for the first time after a few years of using the belle pads, hope this time is a better experience, bringing a mallet just in case.

    You will be grand ours held out ok a few years back in heavy rain but I did hear some tipis leaked


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,860 ✭✭✭fafy


    Whats happens in Pink Moon, if your tent leaks badly, through no fault of your own, making it unusable ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36 Ficcss


    Ah, I will be coming prepared for the cold, just don't want to wake up to a waterboarding or come back to wet beds pillows and cloths!

    Cold air means cold cans so that's a win in my books!

    As someone who enjoys Dance music with a few gargles in me but knows nothing about it, who are the better ones to go see this year?

    Mella Dee will be a good fun set, not too hard or banging, just feckin niice.

    Has anyone bought either of these waterproofs trousers before.

    or

    https://ie.sportsdirect.com/gelert-packaway-trousers-mens-442148#colcode=44214803

    obvious choice for me is the Dunlops for that cool Men at work vibe but I have to be practical here ;)

    Have any of you bought those packaway gelert waterproofs before?

    Halfords have mallets reduced to 50c if anyone needs one

    I’ve never bothered with them before but picked up one yesterday

    I don't think the queues for the beer will be that bad!

    Someone a while back asked about places to shelter - loads of cool spots in mindfield and if you’re peckish drop into theatre of food they have a drinks theatre and food stage - always free food and drink tastings!

    Hi, can someone tell me the best place to sell 2 EP weekend tickets? Genuine reason for sale and I'm a regular poster on boards so I'm legit/not trying to pull a fast one :-) I'm based in Galway and don't want to have to go to loads of hassle - if some one can point me in the right direction, like a reputable website or something, I'd appreciate it.

    Hi-Vis jackets are not allowed, so I doubt the Hi-Vis trousers would be either, so you wouldn't be mistaken for somebody responsible.

    Just registered for loyalty tickets. Was not asked for any previous purchase details (all through TM). Was expecting to be asked. Was this the same for everyone else?

    Bit late now to be ordering online, unless they deliver directly to site !!

    Best idea for late purchases is that 50 cent mallet in Halfords, just hold one in each hand, and the crowd will get out of your way- pronto !
