I guess if you include talks, theatre, drama tents etc perhaps.
Couldn't really tell you, do they class the healing area as a stage as well?
Could someone cut/paste email please?

Having revealed The National as one of our headline acts, and Irish band Fontaines D.C. joining us for their only Irish festival for 2019, get ready….This Tuesday, 19 February which is exactly a year to the day we announced our very first chapter, we will be announcing 30 music acts for All Together Now 2019 with many more still to be announced over the coming weeks and months.
Join us for this, our second chapter on 2-4 August. We will bring you a weekend of freedom, inspiration and escapism through music, spoken word, comedy, theatre, debate, art, workshops, feasts of food and bespoke cocktails.
All Together Now will be set across 16 stages, featuring natural amphitheatres, secret woodland stages, the Belonging Bandstand and more. The flow of the festival will mean that the grounds will be easily navigable, intimate but with quirky gems, rolling lawns, gentle hills and hidden forests to enjoy the nature of this 3000 acre site.
Last year we set off on All Together Now’s maiden voyage. Curraghmore Estate’s 3000 acres provided a setting so fruitful and so beautiful, with incredible history. We had the pleasure of creating and curating a festival here - a festival which has boundless possibility as it evolves each year. 2018’s festival carried an inspiring atmosphere, where people were respectful of each other, the incredible landscape and wonderful performers. Setting off on this journey, we endeavoured to embrace the landscape’s beauty, to honour the past but also to collaborate and create a new future.
Beautiful feasts of food and bespoke cocktails can be enjoyed within this dramatic and scenic landscape.
We are passionate about creating and promoting sustainability at All Together Now and we are acutely aware of our duty of care to Curraghmore Estate’s stunning grounds. All Together Now festival goers embraced this and we all left the grounds of Curraghmore Estate as we found them. We will be introducing even further measures for 2019, which we will be rolling out in the forthcoming months.
A key part of our creative work is to create a festival for families and kids to enjoy, be inspired by, to be safe at and to feel cared for. In doing so we will create an area to fulfill this ethos called Kids Together.
This glorious setting is perfect for its proximity to some of Ireland’s largest cities - just 50 minutes from Cork and 90 minutes from Dublin - with plenty of transport links from all main hubs. This 3-day camping festival will provide you with an incredible setting in which to set up your tent or unpack in our bespoke accommodation options, ready to dive right into the site. Those with families can make their 3 day home in our Family Camping Area, an independent space to retreat to with your little ones. We have taken measures for this forthcoming year to ensure there will be plenty of transport links from all main hubs.
Music, art, friendship and camaraderie are the tenets by which All Together Now will continue to adhere. After a magical sell out first year we return this August with an expanded All Curious Minds area, additional boutique camping options as well as a larger family campsite and Kid Together Now Area. We will continue the festival’s focus on supporting the local arts and collaborating with Waterford Spraoi Festival, with slight growth to a 20,000 capacity festival. 12 miles of stone walls enclose the grounds, and the very nature of the estate will allow you to be right in the midst of the action, or to take time out to relish in the surroundings.
We are indebted to Lord and Lady Waterford for opening the grounds of the Curraghmore Estate to us all - the fabulous landscapes, the drama, the secret spots and hidden gems all lie in wait for you at All Together Now.
We can’t wait to welcome you like-minded people, music lovers, passionate performers, families, artists, musicians, creators, rebels, and refugees of a changing festival landscape back to Curraghmore this August Bank Holiday Weekend.

Thievery Corporation .... ? :eek:
Looking at 'Camp' Bestival and knowing the history with IOW Bestival and EP, the dates being close to each other like the original two, some of the acts would have to be on both cards (even if they're not, I can hope)
Camp Bestival 2019 Lineup
Of that lineup, I'm guessing:
Morcheeba, The Human League, Sister Sledge, Grandmaster Flash, Black Grape
Maybe:
Ash, The Wailers, Goldie, Broken Brass Ensemble, Ghetto Funk Allstars, DJ Yoda.
What year is this lineup for? 2005?
Goldie Lookin Chain Legends Set FTW ... and Morcheeba I suppose and Black Grape... ok, I am also intrigued by "Elvana: Elvis fronted Nirvana".0 -

I don't think everyone is sick of EP, but I do think it has become a little stagnant for those that have been going for a long time.
It is also definitely starting to attract a younger crowd (and NO it's not because I'm getting older).
EP was orginally aimed at an older crowd than Witnness/Oxegen and set in September to avoid school and also took credit card bookings as less young people had access to those sort of gimmicks back then. Also many of the acts would have been handpicked for a certain demographic (Mentioned that to convince myself I'm not a grumpy old man).
Up to that point Irish festivals just had to announce any random acts and announce the dates that tickets would go on sale. EP took a bit of a risk by pruposely not including acts that wouldn't attract everyone, nor would they encourage a large percent of the concert going population to come to it.
Other festivals are starting to become weary too, and do need to move around/rebrand to keep them exciting.
ATN is a breath of fresh air, and with John Reynolds' untimely death (R.I.P
) it may be along time before we see another such breath.
My worst EP was 2009, which coincidentally was when MCD got involved. That year there was different security, and railings were being stampeded down. There were mobile phones holding up queues on the boardwalks. I left it for a couple of years after that with a bitter taste in my mouth. Everyones experience is different though.
I hope ATN succeeds, because it's the only festival of its type that is providing a setting that will be enjoyed for another 15 - 20 years that I can see.0 -

Haven't been to one since. I know you can make your own fun at these things and sometimes it's a bit of luck depending on who your with and who your camping around, but I never found the atmosphere at EP all that great even in the good old days when the lineup was good. Indiependence had a much better atmosphere and have had more fun at Oxegen/Witnness, Reading and Roskilde.
Also, by 2009 I found it too cramped there. Seemed overcrowded for the size of the place. God knows what it's like now. I also got so drunk I nearly blew up my buddies van with me inside and got lost in the woods, which of course was my own fault not MCD. Not been that drunk again since. What a pity I was on the Monday.
I'll keep an open mind about ATN depending on the line up, but whilst I still love going to gigs, I haven't been to a big open air festival in a few years. Be it day long or for a weekend. The event junkies have taken over and I just got fed up of trying to enjoy a band while accountants with flowers in their hair around you persist to talk with their back to the stage, painting their faces, being as distracting as possible and make an exhibition of themselves for the sake of a few likes on social media..basically anything bar watching and enjoying the music.0 -
