While thousands of festival-goers appear to have had a great time at All Together Now this weekend, there’s no getting away from the fact that one of the main talking points has been the traffic issues.
Some people spent the whole day in their cars on Friday and it seems like getting out of Curraghmore Estate is proving more difficult than getting in. A number of people have been sharing images of long traffic lines and it could be late tonight before some of them get home.
So far the traffic out of #ATN19 is WORSE than it was on Friday. An hour and a half in the car and the exit of our bit of the car park is in sight 😂 #Win pic.twitter.com/kr96l1ALv0

#ATN19 queuing? Nah, let’s just scrum. Seems the sensible option. pic.twitter.com/CYUbt0UShS

Pity, as other than traffic issues it was an absolutely fantastic weekend. pic.twitter.com/ZAYZGJhgfL

50 mins to move 300m. Standstill for the last 15 mins. Penny just hasn't dropped for organisers at #ATN19

Glad I didn’t get that family ticket now. The purgatory for a festival weekend should not include 10-15 hours cooked up in tailbacks. Stay strong fellow countrymen & women; you won’t die and you’re still good people! #ATN19 #AllTogetherNow

By all accounts, it was a great weekend otherwise so if organisers manage to iron out the traffic issues, music fans can looking forward to another great event next year.
