Lone range(ish) forecast says that it should be dry, pleasant and sunny on Saturday:

They started putting up the stage and tents yesterday so if you fancy a sneak peak you can just stroll into the IMMA gardens.

Anyone know what's going down in The Sugar Club on Saturday night? FlyLo is in Button Factory according a previous poster, but ... http://instagram.com/p/ofiQo0tEA_/#

Considering going on the Sunday but don't get paid till Friday, will the day tickets sell out or would I be able to get them on Friday/on the door?

A couple of questions:

Will the original stage and undergrowth stage be far apart? I'm guessing that the layout will be similar to past years. It's just that I'm planning to see F*ck Buttons and then heading over to the original stage afterwards.

Also, how big of a crowd would be expected at this?

ghostdancer

they're a couple minutes walk at best.

wouldn't expect a huge crowd, although the weather being good will help. every single break on Newstalk i've heard this week has FF ads, so it can't be selling that well before now....

Furious-Red

Yea if the weather stays nice then i can see a few people just going and paying in at the gate.

JJ

The weather on Saturday should be great but on Sunday, not so much. I'd expect a bigger crowd on Saturday as they're saying it's going to be sunny with temperatures in the low 20s.

official afterparty on Sunday is TEED and Klangkarussell DJing in the Button Factory.

Surgeon and Paul Woolford/Special Request are playing in the Twisted Pepper that night too https://www.facebook.com/events/632331343508990/?ref=2&ref_dashboard_filter=upcoming
Com Truise in the Grand Social: https://www.facebook.com/events/481533685279617/?ref=2&ref_dashboard_filter=upcoming
lots of funk and disco in the Bernard Shaw: https://www.facebook.com/events/577869592310676/?ref=2&ref_dashboard_filter=upcoming
Guy Gerber in Pygmalion too, ridiculous price though.

Is it not free into the after parties with a wristband/ticket? Thought I heard that but maybe I'm wrong. TEED and Klangkarussel in the button factory would be nice!

Hey Guys,

You could park at the Red Cow and get the Luas to Heuston or you could park at Heuston Station and walk to the festival site:

They mentioned it on their facebook. Have said prices and how to get tickets will be released tomorrow which would imply you have to pay. The aftershow thing on the Sunday last year in The Button Factory/Meeting House Square last year was great. Had Caribou, Four Tet and Austra. It was free though for ticket holders, as was the year before. Don't think I'll pay if it's not free this year.

Parking would cost a fortune for the day in qpark. Not sure what the parking is like at heuston but an idea would be park along the main road in Phoenix park for free and walk over. 10-15 min max walk. Plus Ryan's on park gate street would be prefect for grub when you arrive

the Flying Lotus one on Saturday is €12, supposed to be for ticket holders only, but Hidden Agenda posted a link to buy tickets from ticketmaster this afternoon...

i'd say Sunday's will be €12 too.

Thanks for the info guys.

Have decided to park in ParkRite in St. James' Hospital. €15 for 24 hours - right side of the city, quick stroll to the venue. Enjoy the show guys!

I think the whole official 'after party' thing is a marketing ploy, often held in a venue run by the same promoter as the 'main event'. Just to make it more attractive to punters perhaps.

jaysus, the more I listen to Nils Frahm the more he becomes my #1 must see tomorrow.
How great is this for example?

Where have people heard about Klangkarussel/TEED after party in the button factory? Can't seem to find it anywhere online.

I'm supposed to be getting a lift to this and getting collected afterwards. I know on the website it says that there is no parking at the venue but is it possible to reach it by car? It might be a stupid question but I've never been there before so I'm not sure.
