not being smart - genuinely curious... all the talk of alcohol with regards to this fest??? i don't get it.. sure - drink is nice at a fest but there is sooo much more to this festival than beer surely? one can drink at home or where ever anytime... but ATN is fab - alcohol or not..

seems like about 60% of this thread is about alcohol..

Toast

Stuck in the queue to the car park. Going to be some horrible tailbacks later.

I'm bringing all of 12 small 330ml cans for 3 nights. I'm going for music but a few beers in the sun ain't bad! Think it's more on the logistics of bringing it down etc then the booze itself

ATN Facebook page have warned about no following the traffic plan and said there's long walks in store if you show up in the wrong carpark.

Looks like good few tickets cropping up on Toutless if anyone looking to go last minute :P

Just arrived with Campervan. Roads very badly signposted all around so use Google maps.

Sun is splitting the stones here.

No camper search at all. Just opened the door and asked if we had any gas or sharps. Said no and she closed the door. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜

Loads of awnings up and even a few tents. We were asked if we wanted to put an awning up so we could have more space.

All very chill here now.

good stuff !

As I said in previous post...
Some people think plans don't count, and shouldn't be followed... :rolleyes:
Remember when you are sitting in your car, Q'ing up to go in the correct entrance to where you are staying, think of all the gob****es just going in whatever entrance they feel they can use.....

Car park might be more convenient, but they will walk further !!! :D:D:D

Aceso

But of queuing to get into the car parks but, I'm assuming it's because they literally just opened up. Will report back about walking etc etc once we're out of the car and making our way towards the campsite.
Just follow the traffic plans, don't be wrecking anyone's head trying to make your own route.
Don't forget your spf

Haha that was the vibe alright! :P Grand getting on train with drink btw. Just an FYI it seems to be just USB socket for charger in train

Queuing to get in after parking is a bit of a joke. We're all being funneled up a really narrow hill for an hour now, still nowhere near the wristband area.

Did anyone get dropped off yet? Is the que bad for that?

Which colour carpark is that for - which camping area?

BurtMacklin

Quick ticket query - did they do mobile tickets for this? One of the lads is buying a tickets and the person is sending it on via ticketmaster. I presume it is a mobile ticket and not a print at home ticket? Legit yeah?

kg703

I'm sitting on a mountainy road and haven't moved, sweating. No idea which car park I'm heading for even signs are terrible so followed Google maps. Help.

What's the checks like going in?

Skidrow

left diblin At 9:45, sitting in red carpark at 12:00 having a coffee. I brought hot flask and no beer. No cue for wristband. Minimal check fo glass, sharp objects. Quick podpads checkin

Blue carpark for both campsites. 2.5 hours to get from the car park to the campsite.

PinkCamper

Halfway down the M9 and realised we’ve forgotten our camping chairs. Anyone know can we buy or rent them there? Staying in podpads

Have to say traffic management and signnage is a joke. Queuing on a country road for the last 90 minutes and still no where near a car park

Dunno how they could manage it better,just the volume of cars arriving down at once.

davidrehill

Just landed with Campervan, no issue with gas, just a quick look inside! Enjoy all!

Fuzzy_Dunlop

They should have put signs up advising people to not go up the hilly Lane that Google sends everyone up

Tacitus Kilgore

Has taken 2 hours to do a fcukin mile from carrick toward the grounds. Awful setup - getting fairly scaldy now.

Bit late..came in from Clonmel side, no signs at all..
Cold cans of cider beside teasing me..

Aceso

Warm water coming out of the taps.. On the way in they'd a big issue with us bringing in bottled water...

Tacitus Kilgore

So much for taking the official garda route, the 3 side roads are getting priority while the main road is at a standstill. Still 3 mile from the site and drove thru carrick before 1.

Volume the guard says.. bullshìt setup with no planning says Tacitus.

PinkCamper

Traffic in 24c heat is bull****. Complete standstill. Everyone out of their cars and campers
