Are the headliners to be announced yet?

From what I gather there's 2 big hitters to be announced yet.

Main draw for me is getting to go back to Cyprus Avenue for an extended bit of metal. Was my first time in it since the renovation this year, and I was working around the event so it was a bit too much of a blur for me. Cracking place for this sort of thing. Big, sleek and dark.

Aye it's a lovely venue since they did it up. And a pint bottle of beer like budvar or staropramen is 5 euro. Happy days.
Tis a great spot to play too. Soundman is brilliant and the sound on stage is like hearing a CD of yourselves.

Great!

Same as,first time in there since the facelift,by far the best venue in the city for something like this.Perfect size,great sound and lighting,smack bang in the city centre,cant ask for much more really.

Im a small bit underwhelmed with this years line up,bought the early bird weekend ticket anyway,but i hope theres one more announcement to pull it out of the bag for me.

Hup!

Conan, necronautical and Owlcrusher announced today.

Two more announcements left.

I make big poos.


Yeah! That's a nice surprise.
Still not 'reeeaaalllllyyyy' making it worth the full door price.
But I reckon the last announcement could be a bit of a jaw dropper.

Aye, needs another Rotting Christ to go along with the clear upscaling of the festival. I don't even particularly mind if I'm not too familiar with them. It's not like Rotting Christ are huge or anything. Just big in a subgenre.

Hate to be 'that guy' but am I right in saying tickets for the Saturday alone are over €70? All the best to the organisers and all that......but that's a lot!

Well i got an early bird weekend for €50. Normal price for weekend is €80 which aint bad. And the headliner/and or headliners have still to be announced.

Same as that... Nabbed an early bird for €55 with fees.
Purely on the off chance I can go, but we usually strike off on hols around the August Bank Holiday.
Did the same last year, but had to pass it on in the end.

Early bird ticket really was a bargain compared to what they are asking for now.

The Saturday ticket price is ridiculous, obviously this last headliner still to be announced and could be a costly addition, but to ask €65 and not one genuine headliner among them is some bad booking.

Hold off on the abuse yet!
they have one more card to be dealt.

Got an early bird too,the Saturday  price is a bit much alright especially if your travelling from somewhere outside Cork with accommodation etc.I never minded paying over the odds for international  bands that are playing on my doorstep. Literally can get the bus outside my park right to the venue return for €5.Its such a convenient location for a fest,a good mix of bands,so dont mind paying a bit more for something like this in Cork.
