Thanks for the replies lads, very helpful. Still not too sure what to do but with the weather that's in it may very well go.

I't's a family festival man. Gonna be loads of kids running around. As a couple I would stay WELL away. Unless you like that noise!

The bloody clashes are wrecking my head now that the schedule is out.
I am so looking forward to this, planning at leaving around 10am need to be ready to go for 3pm for action on the main stage!
Going baking there in a minute to have some handy snacks for the weekend.
Anyone here bringing stuff? flapjacks etc.

Bit weird the way they're doing the stage times in that they are absolute clashes. Start and finish times are the exact same on each stage. Most festivals would have a bit of corssover so that you could catch the last half of one act.

Very strange - considering that there is half an hour between acts - surely someone should have said why dont we offset the acts so people can switch from one to the other

I know 15K is not a lot of people but most likely all to do with crowd control and not have a large crowd with kids rushing to catch another act.
Why take the risk..

That's what I was thinking. It get proper crushy when a big act finishes at EP and everybody rushes to the next stage. That said, that could still potentially happen everytime the two acts finish.

My thoughts exactly when I saw the schedule. Bell x1 v king Kong Company and frank and walters v riptide movement. A bit of each would have been better.

That's a balls. They should've staggered the stage times to allow an overlap.

there will still be arena entrances with searches

Wondering will they allow refillable water bottles in for the kids, Cant find any info on it. Other than whats allowed on the campsite.

blueberrypie

I read somewhere that
they want you to bring your refillable bottles so you can fill up at the various water points.

Fairly sure that's the Cu Chullainn roller coaster, and there is a festival this weekend in Tayto park too

Ha to be honest it’s possible. Mate who sent them works at a few festivals. Did say was kaleidoscope. I’ll ask her now to be sure!

danois

Anyone who know the area might be able to tell by the houses in this?
