DRIVING?
HERE’S A NAAS LITTLE WARNING NAAS ROAD!
Due to roadworks on the Naas Rd, if you’re driving we strongly urge you to try and get on the road early! These roadworks can cause serious tailbacks - especially on a Bank Holiday Weekend. Try and get on the road before lunchtime Friday to ensure a smooth journey, or run the risk of missing some fun! Got a campervan? Our Campervan site opens at 6pm on Thursday, so why not head down the night before? Car Parks open at 10am on Friday and the General Campsite opens at 12 noon.
VIA BLUE GATE

Please note, this map point is to clearly mark Red Gate. Your route access to this gate will be determined by the Garda traffic management plan.

BUS EIREANN?
Bus Eireann will be running return services to Curraghmore House from Dublin, Cork and Waterford. Timetables and prices can be found through the links below. This year bus DROP OFF & COLLECTION point will now be on the festival grounds.
DUBLIN - Custom House Quay
CORK - Parnell Place Bus Station
WATERFORD - Waterford Bus Station
PICK-UP & DROP OFF?
As All Together Now is a 3-day camping festival, where everyone with a ticket has the opportunity to make the beautiful Curraghmore Estate their home on the August Bank Holiday Weekend. Festival revelers will stay in everything from tents, campervans and bespoke accommodation across the festival weekend. Those with families can make their 3-day home in our Family Camping Area, an independent space to retreat to with your little ones. If festival attendees choose to stay in off-site accommodation, then we have created a DROP OFF and PICK UP POINT on-site at the festival for All drop-off, taxis, independent bus companies and Bus Éireann which will enter through the festival BLUE GATE.
Last year, the festival drop off point for Bus Éireann, independent bus companies, taxis and General Drop off was at Centra in Portlaw, meaning that all festival-goers being dropped off at the festival went to Portlaw and then took an additional shuttle on-site. This created some traffic issues and congestion for the local residents, and feedback from festival attendees was that they would prefer a drop-off and collection point on the festival site itself.
As an alternative to being dropped off at the festival site, and to avoid potential festival traffic, please consider being dropped off at Busaras Waterford, Merchants Quay. From there, you can catch a bus which will use its own dedicated route to enter the festival site and drop you off! Book a return ticket for just €15. Book here
PRIVATE BUS HIRE & LOCAL TAXI?
DROP OFF & COLLECTION point will now be on the grounds of Curraghmore Estate for General Drop Off, Taxis, Independent Bus Companies, and Bus Éireann, which will enter through the festival BLUE GATE. Here are some local companies:

PACKING!
What is the conscious option when packing for the festival?
When packing for the festival, see how you can do your part in reducing the amount of plastic being brought on-site by making small changes. For example, how about using a reusable tote bag instead of a plastic bag and switching to biodegradable glitter and biodegradable wet wipes. We are committed as festival organisers, to ensuring the minimal use of plastic throughout the All Together Now festival site – on our own part and any external bodies present at the festival. Please avoid bringing single-use packaging and plastic bottles this year. As glass is not permitted onsite, we ask that you decant your alcohol before you arrive! into reusable bottles to help cut down on waste onsite. Bring a reusable bottle wherever possible. If you forget yours, never fear, we’ll have some for sale in our Eco Area within the Arena and in Londis, in the Main Campsite. It’s important that we all come together and make small, everyday changes to help reduce our plastic consumption.
Also, while the weather is set to be a scorcher, remember that this is a rain or shine event - on grass! Keep an eye on the weather and be prepared.
YOU CAN BYOB!
You are welcome to bring your own alcohol. Each person with a weekend camping ticket can bring 24 cans OR 1 litre of spirits OR 1.5 litre of wine for personal consumption. You can bring in your alcohol on initial entry only - there is no re-entry with alcohol once wristbanded on first. You can bring your own alcohol into both the campsite and main arena. As glass is not allowed, we ask that you decant your alcohol into stainless steel bottles or reusable bottles. Please do not bring any single-use plastic bottles to the festival. Please drink responsibly.

HEART OF GLASS
For safety reasons, you are not allowed to bring glass bottles into either the camping or festival site. As above, alcohol within your limit must be decanted into reusable containers. Any glass items, except for small make-up items and perfume/aftershave will not be permitted into the campsite or festival site. Glass can be decanted into stainless steel bottles or reusable plastic bottles. For more on our sustainability initiatives, please head here
