All Together Now 2020

There's a train from Dublin and Bus Eireann shuttle from bus depot to festival site. Not sure if there's a private bus doing it or are people organising it. Be good if festivals which try to be sustainable could link people up for car pools or bus shares. Especially with the cost of petrol and diesel these days.

(As long as I am remembering correctly!) the BSN site was right at the bottom end of the whole arena, next to the Tangerine Fields set up. It was actually larger than the campsite at the top of the arena next the wristband exchange, or maybe just felt like that because it was empty for so long. It is definitely further away from the car park, but about 15mins further than the upper campsite. It was honestly about 10mins max to the arena, certainly to the bandstand/Arcadia stages anyway. If you can pack for the whole festival you'd never need to go back into the car park. Get yourself a trolley, good and true.

Sinead O'Connor won't be performing this year so set at ATN cancelled. https://redfm.ie/post/sinead-oconnors-management-confirm-that-she-will-not-be-performing-live-this-year/

Probably been said but is this not ridiculously expensive. For 230 euros, I'd expect a much stronger lineup

ATN has one of the strongest line-ups in the country this year IMO.

I think they'll throw in a big act to replace Sinead now anyway. Hardly a surprise that she's not going to perform, hopefully she's doing ok.

THE strongest line-up i would say. Ok, still don't know what EP is going to finish serving up (but very poor for me so far) and, yes, it's full of Irish acts that i can see any time of the year, but it's still better than anything else i've seen announced.

Would be great but a bit late in the date. They could well get a new act but say maybe not as big and then save a few bob.

I'm sorta doing the same and seeing if they might release day tickets if it doesn't sell out within a few weeks to go

No, you're grand. They're not needed anymore.

So got tickets to this, 4 of us going, can't wait, I was never at an Irish festival before but Beyond the Pale a couple of weeks ago was amazing so I'm ready to go again.

What's the beer situation like at this? They had delicious Whiplash beers on tap at BTP, no big brewery Heineken nonsense etc.

Edit: Just had a look on the site, eugh, Rockshore ffs

Underworld are playing on Sunday July 31st (per their underworldlive.com site).

King Gizzard & The Lizzard playing on the Sunday.

Christian Loffler is on the Sunday too, at 7pm.

DIIV are playing on the Sunday.

Sunday looks fab for moi with those four alone.

Nick Cave is playing on the Saturday July 30th, per his site.

Couldn't find a date for Floating Points/DJ Koze,

Rival Consoles is on the Saturday.

Sorry, can't post site links, junior boardie poster.

Id say all will be revealed in the final announcement due in the next few days

At the expense of their Irish fans tho. They pulled the plug on their gig in Cork literally the day before it was supposed to be on.

^^faith in the chems restored :)

What happened with tangerine fields in 2019?

Must have been an old ad.

Is it some time next week day by day breakdown and final confirmation of acts is expected?

The missus wants to go with one of the glamping options, after 3 years without camping she's worried it will a tough slog! But remember reading here at the time a lot of ye said it wasn't worth it.

We stayed in Both Sides Now in 2019 and it was nice and spacious. Wonder will it be the same this year, felt like most people just threw the tents down in the handiest location after sitting in traffic the last time around.
