    The 360 stage was plastered with Smirnoff branding, who are Diageo. Im assuming theyre going to need another sponsor from the Heineken stable to jump in there.....

    ....or just put that stage back in the woods where it belongs 🙂

    The most recent announcement last week referenced Ava x Smirnoff so I'd say it's unchanged.

    Glasshouse ensemble playing the music of Bjork 01/08

    Yes currently both Heineken and Smirnoff(part of Diageo) listed on the ATN website as partners so maybe it hasn’t been updated or there is an element of ‘sharing the wealth’

    Hope some good DJs announced soon to get me in the mood . I hate the branding and general ‘absolute state’ of the AVA stage but at same time I had great time dancing there at ATN in 2024 and 2025 and it’s much quicker to dip in and out of compared to Arcadia. If they get DJs again like HAAI, Clowds , Cait, Max Cooper etc I’ll be happy

    There are a couple of resale facebook pages that in some ways look genuine but probably aren't. Can anyone shed any light on them?

    I would imagine that they split the beer and spirits because Heineken doesn't really do spirits in our part of the world. They also had non-Diageo spirits for the last few years too such as Aperol (do they sponsor the guest area or is it a seperate bar?), Jameson (Pernod brand) was quiet prominent with The Circle and another bar, Kraken rum (Proximo) bar in Global Roots and I think Proximo might have some tequela elsewhere, maybe Lost City? There's also smaller brands with the Dingle gin bar, that wine bar along the main strip down to the house and I think the bar up behind Arcadia sold some non-Diageo drinks (Kraken rum maybe).

    The prebook restaurants also had a few other options too.

    That will be good. Glasshouse playing Sigur Rós at The Bandstand on the Sunday morning last year with glorious weather was a magical morning panned out on the grass. It was almost enough to reverse the previous three nights of excess… almost!

    I would never buy a ticket off Facebook... never! The only official resale is via Ticketmaster or if you have access to Toutless it tends to be more trustworthy but exercise the usual caution.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 92 ✭✭Magulok


    Stage announcement just happened. Hyppee. The Last City. Loved the vibe of that place.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 92 ✭✭Magulok


    Did anyone catch The Last City parade last year? missed it but wanted to go

    word! People have a better chance of getting a backstreet handjob from Bigfoot than a legitimate ticket seller on Facebook.


    there was that one time though after coppers….



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,290 ✭✭✭endainoz


    Brilliant last city announcement there, nice to have the three big Limerick rappers in there with Strange boy, hazey haze and dyrt. The area might be a bit too rammed for thumper id say. Huartan are a very exciting trad crossover act too.

    The Wran playing Lost City too!!!!

    Last City was easiky the best wee area last year.

    The Tradiator wrestling was hilariously great craic. Where else are u going to see Rory Gallagher and The Salmon Of Knowledge going toe-to-toe?



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 16,416 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Yea really loved the area last year too, caught Ispini and part of the trad rave, also the cocktail bar that was selling the mango cocktails(like a solero) were unreal.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 brownek1065


    Delighted with that announcement. Went down on Thursday last year and headed into megaTRAD who were playing early afternoon on Friday. It was great craic.

    Will defo try see The Wran, Huartan and Ispíní as well.

    because i like Yard Act and have too much time on my hands I went trawling their IG feed as theyve a festival schedule announced and a European tour announced but no Irish dates for the 2nd year running and found this

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,009 ✭✭✭gandalfio


    I haven't seen Bicurios since EP probably 10 years ago. If you like math rock check them out. Huartan brilliant as well. And is Colin Devine the DJ? Saw him in Pawn Shop recently and the tunes were banging.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 702 ✭✭✭fillup


    Huartan are a new one on me, just gave them a quick search, looks like they're right up my street- tnks for the heads up folks!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 11,096 ✭✭✭✭Pudsy33


    Huartan are class, great addition

    Sorry I was referencing the after burner in Arcadia as the 360 stage not AVA



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,033 ✭✭✭antfin


    They haven't said which version of Arcadia we will get this year. I assume it will be the Afterburner. The Bug that we got a few years would look a bit underwhelming in the new site.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,290 ✭✭✭endainoz


    I see the Mary Wallopers announced a three arena gig for December, looks like they might be at a proper sub headliner level with the new album due out so their billing on the ATN lineup would make sense.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,290 ✭✭✭endainoz


    Also id take a guess and say we'll likely get Thumper playing some other stage over the weekend, the lovely days stage (or whatever it'll be called) possibly.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,005 ✭✭✭LiamaDelta


    Wouldn't touch them until transfer opens and even at that I'd be wanting to meet in person.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,047 ✭✭✭Dreamweapon


    I'm baffled as to why The Leon Stax Equation have never played. Irish band on a Soul/Funk vibe. I came across them a couple of years ago. Reckon they'd go down well.

    …^……<…./?::;;:::@"! ((((((*))))))#=)))))~



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 68 ✭✭OverAndOverandOver


    First time hearing these 🤘🏼, they'd be perfect in some of the smaller outdoor stages or bandstand early evening. Thanks for introducing this to my ears 🙌🏼
