A full list of stage times is not yet available, so keep an eye on The Rewind Festival's socials for more information on the day. Concertgoers are advised to arrive half an hour before the show starts. There is no queuing allowed before gates opening, meaning you will be turned away if you arrive too early. Who is playing?

More acts are expected to be announced. READ MORE How do I get to and from the gig? People are advised to allow at least an extra two hours travel time to and from the venue. Traffic and parking delays are expected. Travel by bus: Marathon Coaches are among those offering direct, private services, with a return bus operating from Northwall Quay Bus Stop 7623 in Dublin city centre to a range of destinations across the counties Dublin, Meath and Kildare.

Visit for more information. Travel by car: Attendees are advised to use public transport, as there is no public parking at the event. The car parks at St Anne's Park are not open during events, and towing and clamping is in operation for anyone who parks illegally. The final hurdle: When you reach the site, there are two entrances. You may enter through whichever of these is most convenient for you, and organisers advise that both routes require about a 1.3km walk from the park entrance to ticket scan/entry. • Green entrance: Sybil Hill on to main avenue. • Blue entrance: All Saints Road, via Tennis court entry. Are there any tickets left? Yes, there are still tickets available. Each ticket costs €77.45 and can be bought on Ticketmaster . Verified resale tickets are also available. Anyone attending should download tickets to their phone in advance, in case there are issues around internet connection when entering the park. Screenshots will not work on the day as barcodes are live and updating regularly. For festivalgoes who need to collect their tickets there is a box office on the main avenue where the green and blue routes meet. What is security like? Under-16s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to enter St Anne's Park. Strict security checks will be in operation, and you are advised not to bring a large bag or backpack as you may experience delays or even be refused entry. Prohibited items include glass or cans, umbrellas, alcohol, garden furniture, camping or collapsible chairs, e-scooters and e-bikes, flares, professional cameras and audio recording equipment. A full list can be found here . There are no re-admissions to the concert, so if you leave you cannot get back in. What does the weather look like? Temperatures should get to a high of 18 degrees, but Met Éireann has forecast spells of rain showers over the coming days, with breezier conditions than of late also expected. Given St Anne's Park is a standing venue on a grass surface, you should bring boots or runners as well as layering up. It may help to have a raincoat or poncho alongside your sun cream.
