Excitement builds ahead of All Together Now festival

Preparations are underway for this year's All Together Now festival.

Running over the August Bank Holiday weekend 4th to 6th, over 22 thousand people are expected to descend on the Curraghmore Estate in Co. Waterford.

Speaking to WLR News, Will Rolfe, Promotion Manager All Together Now says hundreds of artists will be performing.

"This is the fourth chapter of the festival. We have a stellar lineup in store with the like of Iggy Pop, Lorde, Jamie XX, Loyle Carner, and the Sugarbabes which will be one for the people from the early naughties.

"We have over 250 artists performing at the festival across 18 stages, which will be incredible."

The festival was put on hold from 2020-2021 for two years due to COVID restrictions, with the annual event returning last year.

Will continued, "It's the second biggest festival in Ireland now and I think it is something that everyone from Waterford can be really proud of. There are so many incredible bands from Waterford performing at the festival, and we have a huge attendance from the region. I think it is going to be an incredible year.

"I think it is always challenging, but when you have a festival that is growing such a strong reputation and a site as beautiful as Curraghmore, you can present that to people and they really appreciate it.  It's special for all of us who work there as it is for people who go to the festival. To drive in the gates and see the beautiful landscape that is there is amazing as it is for the artists also. It is a really unique place to play."
