Went last year for the first time, first festival in years actually. Was good craic, did the glamping which my old bones thanked me for. Well organised, not a massive festival so nothing was too far away. 4 days of music this year. They have a bar setup called el presidio with DJs playing all weekend, you can easily lose a few hours in there skulling jack and cokes while dancing on the tables.
With the extra day of music this year I'm not sure on the setup but last year at least the actual festival entrance wasn't giving wristbands until Friday because its free on Thursday for locals, so you get a wristband for camping and a different one for the festival (which you have to walk the long way around to get at the main entrance).
A load of free and constantly cleaned flush toilets beside the swamp stage, always a queue but it moves fast.
Local council announced last year in the run up that taxis within the festival and city could be max 25 euro or something. Haven't seen it yet this year but good to know as it's a bit of fucking around to get from the train station to the expo center for the bus out.
Powerwolf headlining the final night over Lamb of God is a decision but sure look it.

A logical decision music preference is one thing but how can it be justified a FFDP support act take top billing over bands headlining much bigger festivals.
Powerwolf are absolutely huge on the European circuit...
What does "huge on the European circuit" mean? Is it the same as huge in Europe?
Don't some of the Euro festivals have a headliner and then a smaller band after them?
Your ma is huge on the European circuit.
Your oul one has a huge circuit.
Your oul one flicks the bean to Short Circuit 2
Beany 5 is alive!
