Oxegen 2009

Bloc Party are among the latest names confirmed for this year's Oxegen festival.
The art-rockers will be joined by indie pop group The Script and the 'I Kissed A Girl' singer Katy Perry.

Today's confirmations join headliners The Killers, Snow Patrol and Kings Of Leon, who will play for the second consecutive year.

Oxegen 2009, which was voted Best European Festival last year, will take place at Punchestown Racecourse, County Kildare from 10-12 July.



Anyone thinking of heading to it this year?

Great to see KoL again, will pick up my tickets closer to the time this year, they are bound to be cheaper close to the time

at €224.50 a ticket for the 3 day camping I'll be giving this a miss.  Would have loved to have went one more time but the thought of rolling around in shite in a field in Kildare compared to a fair down payment on a sun/snow holiday, only one winner.....

as much as I enjoy oxegen, cant see me going back this year. Far to many hoods at it now compared to the early years.
Last year my brother got his car broken in to and all his and his mates clothes stolen, my mate got his tent slashed and his car keys stolen and we got several things taken from the group of tents at our campsite.
So much for the festival spirt! Just seems to have turned into a playground for hoods and thieves.Pity cause the music and bands are usually great

Went to Oxegen once. I prefer to head to festivals on the continant rather than in Ireland. better weather, better craic, better line-ups, less wankers, cheaper and better beers, better organised festivals, better facilities. Theres a wide choice of festivals to suit your taste.

[The Watcher Pat]

Might head to it myself this year...

3 days on the rip doesn't sound too bad to me..

Don't even care who's playing but would like to see Lily Allen in the flesh to see what she looks like..

I've been to Wacken and Graspop . Going to Clisson in France this year. Roskilde is meant to be good craic. I've never been to it though. Apart from that one bad time with Pearl Jam I've only heard good things.
