For festivalgoers 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 readmissions to the concert, so if you leave you cannot get back in. What does the weather look like? Met Éireann has forecast a mixed day of showers and sunny spells with highest temperatures of 13 to 16 degrees and moderate winds. 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.

Rancher Government Solutions and Kasm Technologies Announce Strategic Partnership to Modernize Government Virtual and Containerized Desktop Infrastructure
WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 6, 2025-- Rancher Government Solutions (RGS), the leader in secure Kubernetes management for the U.S. Government, today announced a strategic partnership with Kasm Technologies , a pioneer in modern virtual and containerized desktop infrastructure (VDI/CDI). Together, RGS and Kasm are delivering a cloud-native, Kubernetes-powered workspace solution purpose-built to meet the mission-critical demands of government and defense organizations. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: This partnership brings together RGS's industry-leading open-source Kubernetes stack with Kasm Workspaces' web-native VDI/CDI platform — offering a scalable, secure, and cost-effective alternative to legacy hypervisor-based solutions like VMware and Citrix. 'Government agencies can no longer afford to rely on legacy VDI platforms that are costly, complex, and vulnerable,' said Ryan Lewis, CEO of Rancher Government Solutions. 'Our partnership with Kasm Technologies provides a modern, cloud-native solution that delivers operational simplicity, zero-trust security, and true multi-cloud flexibility.' The RGS-Kasm solution redefines VDI/CDI for government use-cases, empowering agencies to securely deliver virtual desktops and applications across on-premises, hybrid, cloud, and air-gapped environments — without endpoint agents or proprietary hardware requirements. 'Together, we are transforming workspace delivery for federal agencies,' said Justin Travis, CEO of Kasm Technologies. 'By combining our web-native VDI platform with Rancher's secure Kubernetes stack, we are enabling government organizations to operate with greater agility, security, and cost efficiency — wherever their mission takes them.' This joint solution is already gaining traction with U.S. government customers seeking alternatives to costly legacy VDI platforms, especially in the wake of rising zero-trust mandates, modernization initiatives and increasing concerns about vendor lock-in. With out-of-the-box compliance for FIPS 140-2, NIST 800 controls, and DISA STIG guidelines, the RGS-Kasm solution enables agencies to meet federal security mandates while delivering modern workspace experiences to mission users anywhere in the world. Key solution benefits include: Ironclad Security: Zero-trust architecture with workload isolation and defense-grade controls. No Vendor Lock-In: Freedom from proprietary hypervisor licensing models. Scalable Anywhere: Operate in disconnected, low-bandwidth, or classified environments. Lower Total Cost of Ownership: Leverage existing hardware, reduce licensing fees, and simplify operations. Unified Management: Centralized control of Kubernetes clusters, virtual machines, and VDI/CDI environments through the RGS Manager.
