    i'm praying there are no clashes. There should be no reason a small festival with a small lineup and small crowd should have ANY clashes of note. If Phoenix/Django/Foals clash in any way I will be sooooo annoyed!

    Clashes almost look unavoidable for the Sunday though.. Kraftwerk, Yeah Yeah Yeah's and Hot Chip definitely at least one of them going to be missed :(

    If Forbidden Fruit is anything to go by, the top two acts each night should be the last two acts on the main stage each night, so there shouldn't be schedule conflicts there.

    I see no reason why they can't be the last 3 acts on the main stage.

    Here's hoping, but i doubt it!

    Latitude had a lot of clashes last year so I'm pessimistic

    Just looking at the Latitude details from last year - timetable released on the 11th festival started on the 13th, so might be an indicator of no timetable till next Wednesday at the earliest.

    Ya but they also have Alt J playing, who headline another stage. So i imagine Hot Chip/Yeah Yeah Yeahs will be manning another stage while the other is on just before Kraftwerk.

    There's a nice enough aul lineup, especially on Saturday and Sunday. I'd be tempted if I didn't already have 101 gigs this summer including Electric Picnic. Lack of camping too is a bit of a balls.

    Would've been handy if it was on this weekend, what with the weather.

    No doubt we'll have to suffer a 3 day deluge next weekend

    Long range forecast on the Weather Channel says Friday week should be partly sunny and about 20 degrees.

    http://entertainment.ie/summerfestivals/music-festivals-2013-news/Introducing-Heineken-Live-Project-stage-at-Longitude/11/200550.htm
    We're only a handful of sleeps away from the first ever Longitude festival in Dublin's Marlay Park. The newbie on the festival scene has garnered a heap of attention ahead of its unveiling, principally surrounding the stellar nature of its line-up. Phoenix, Vampire Weekend, Kraftwerk, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Villagers and Django Django among the heady list of acts on the bill...but the fun isn't confined to just the main stage.

    The Heineken Live Project stage will host some of the world's most popular electronic and live acts, including: Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Paul Kalkbrenner, SBTRKT, Trentemoller, MØ, Jessie Ware, Mmoths, Gold Panda, Young Wonder and Flume.

    The Heineken Eco Exchange will be in place this year. An eco-initiative which rewards eco-conscious festival goers with prizes for returning 20 used plastic pint glasses, it's always been a bit of fun in the past and this year winners will spin a prize wheel where they can instantly win prizes.

    The website is a bit confusing so I'll ask here, does anyone know if you can bring alcohol in? The website says you can't bring excessive amounts in, then directly below that says you can't bring any.

    Possibly they mean Marlay Park for the first bit and the actual gig for the second bit? Gardai were searching people on entry to phoenix park yesterday for JT.

    The answer to that would be no. Under "Things You Can't Bring" it says you can't bring in cans, alcohol, opened plastic drinks bottles or drinks bottles over 500ml in size and only sealed plastic bottles of water 500ml or under and sealed cartons of juice will be permitted into the arena.

    Looks like a lot of the information pages are copied from the Latitude site, where they have camping and probably slightly different rules. I would imagine over there that you can bring alcohol into the campsite but not into the arena.


    I would be very surprised if you were allowed to bring alcohol in at all at Longitude.

    That looks like a good setup with plenty of space between most stages so the sound doesn't overlap.
