Hmmmm..... I wouldn't "assume" that you will be able to take a left--we don't know what they're up to. Me, I would be inclined to somehow get on to the N80 further south rather than assuming you'll get a left there.

That's they way they operated last year, left at Cross.

I like your style. And your handle. "Your honour, you take away our right to steal ideas, where are they going to come from? Her?"

Thanks Peterd66. I might chance that route so instead of heading further south to Athy and back the way.

Btw, think I read somewhere that you cannot walk through the campervan site entrance but have done so previously. Anyone know if that is actually the case?

Oops, reported your reply there by accident Peterd44 instead of posting. Sorry!

Melvin Benn said there's a Bunker somewhere with DJ's from Berlin. Hence, the Berlin Bunker!

Just follow the line of lads chewing obscene amounts of Hubba Bubba and winking at each other.

Hi all, so it’s my first time going to EP and I’m thinkinh of staying in Oscar Wilde or Andy Warhol. Does anyone have any tips or recommendations on where is best to stay. I read to stay away from Hendricks. Could you also please help with regards to what car park would be best to stay in. One final question I’m thinking of bringing a litre of gin would it be ok to just pour that into a 1 litre plastic bottle or would it need to be spilt between a few smaller plastic bottle?

Depends what you're looking for, Hendrix probably is best avoided either way. Wilde or Warhol would be lively enough and pretty busy and noisy, I used to camp in Wilde and enjoyed it though, short walk to the arena. Janis Joplin and Charlie Chaplin are considered the quiet and more mature campsites so if you value a nights sleep maybe go there, longer walks to the arena though.

Yep you will be grand putting it into the big bottle once it's plastic, no glass allowed whatsoever. Also you would be best off parking in red but most people get sent here by default if they are arriving on Friday.

With regards travelling to Green Car park for Pink Moon Camping - Is going through Vicarstown a silly idea because it won't lead us directly into Stradbally because there's a diversion at Garrons crossroads?

Who here has gotten into Green Car Park from Dublin? If so, did you just drive the normal route via M7, thaking exit 15?

After this, is it a matter of luck to get Green, or do they fill up Red first and then use the Green?

I got into the green last year on the Friday afternoon by going through kildangan. The route is diverted by guards to the Carlow side of stradbally but I just drove straight up through the village and took a left towards the green car park. Hope this helps.

I went through Vicarstown last year and got into green no problem. It is saying there is a diversion this year but still going to chance it. Any other time I have gone down the M7 I have ended up in red. My worry about going the Athy route is that I will end up in yellow which would be a disaster, it sounds like green is designated for Thursday and Sunday arrivals this year.

Thinking about coming through Athy via Wicklow and have the same concern. Yellow car park would be a disaster for Pink Moon so is it that or a coin toss as to whether you land in Red/Green? The website is awful vague, just saying that the Green car park is off the n80.

Is a new thread necessary or could they just let this run to its conclusion next week? Am unfamiliar with the internal workings of the forum.
