Tickets for a KOL solo gig in the UK are about €90, this festival is a steal!
Am I wrong for thinking what's the catch???

Was at Optimus 2 years ago. Great bands. Awesome weather. No scumbags. Couldn't get any better...

Both festivals (Optimus and BBK) are held at the same time and so, normally, the line up is very similar.

Two Door Cinema Club?!

Are they having a laugh!???

I've been at optimus the last three years and it's great. Cheaper and better than any Irish festival. BBK usually has pretty much the same line up but is a bit more expensive (it was last year anyway)

I was thinking the same. I presume that they're not the headliner though that day, just the first to be announced.

Correct. They will not be the headliner on the 12th. Most of the confirmations still to come.

Was at it last year. Great value for the price of the tickets.

The camping facilities are quality as well, and very well priced.

Radiohead played last year, along with Stone Roses, Snow Patrol etc so that gives you an indication of what kind of acts they have.

The only small criticism that I would have is that the range of acts is not as varied as other festivals, but that's only a minor quibble!
