    Yep, but I'll take that. I'll be going to Tame Impala. Just need to pick up a ticket now.

    Only going on the Saturday but crap enough that Tame Impala clash with Kiasmos! Might try and catch a bit of both. Any clashfinders set up yet?

    ****ty clash all right, it's not like the lineup is that great/jampacked that they have to put 2 of the best on at once


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,546 ✭✭✭Ferris_Bueller


    Exactly. I through this clashfinder together quickly to get my head around the clashes fully. If I want to get value for my money there will be a lot of jumping from stage to stage!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,355 ✭✭✭cruhoortwunk


    At least there's not much distance between the stages. Could catch 30mins of Kiasmos, then head over to Tame Impala

    Does anyone know if there'll be an area to store bags at this? We'll be arriving the Friday evening and will probably want to go straight to the festival

    Not as far as I remember but Heusten station is nearby so I'm sure it would have lockers?

    It was €15 or so for them last year from what I recall too. And they involved big queues to get in, and were overcrowded.

    You'd be much better off with a low-key afterparty in someone's home if you can organise one.
    Do you need a festival ticket or can anybody rock up and get in?

    I thought that'd be the case too but apparently not, think Heuston got rid of their lockers. Thanks for the reply anyway!

    There's a hostel or two near it that I'm sure would be sound and offer to mind your bags maybe?

    If there is anyone with a full weekend ticket not looking to go on the Sunday I would be willing to pay you for band/ticket.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 785 ✭✭✭team_actimel

    Yeah was around the same last year too. They had contactless pay terminals for debit card at the bars which was handy. Spent minimal time queueing for drinks as far as I remember.
