Having only been around for just over a year, All Together Now has quickly gained a reputation as one of the most sought-after festivals in the Irish summer.

It's easy to see why - from absolutely stellar headliners like Patti Smith and the National, to a rake of fantastic Irish acts, this festival has already become a firm fixture.

Now, All Together Now is set to return from 2020.

In a statement released today, the All Together Now organisers confirmed the news, saying that the festival will return from July 31-August 2. They also addressed the heavy traffic issue, which caused many festival-goers to be stuck in their cars on Friday afternoon (some for up to 11 hours), as they tried to make their way into Curraghmore estate.

"As the dust settles we look back and take stock of our second chapter. Firstly, the All Together Now Team would like to say we are absolutely and fully committed to making sure that the issues that arose this year’s festival are not repeated. We have taken in every comment, every email and are carefully taking note of where we need to improve. We have met and are working closely with An Garda Siochana and our other partner agencies to ensure that the traffic experienced traveling to this year’s festival does not happen again. We aim for the highest standards and plan to deliver the best festival experience possible. We are deeply disappointed that some areas of this years All Together Now fell short of expectations, and for this, we are truly sorry.

"Secondly, we would like to thank the All Together Now community for its continued support, we are indebted to those who took a chance on us and joined us on our maiden voyage in 2018 and those who returned again this year, sticking with us through heavy traffic, rain and even wasps, but you still came together in celebration to make All Together Now truly special and memorable."

"We have been heartened by the All Together Now community that has taken the time to share their experience with us. Although there were negatives, which we have to and will address and improve for our third edition, there were some amazing and memorable moments. You were respectful of each other, of the beautiful landscape and all our wonderful performers. You enjoyed feasts of food, bespoke cocktails, hidden stages, and hot tubs and a host of different and quirky gems. The Arcadia, Afterburner shot its flames into the night sky, whilst Tigre’s 20 foot wooden Redwood Stag installation looked on down the Road To Nowhere toward the illuminated Curraghmore House. Brunch on the Bandstand with Blindboy had you captivated on Sunday afternoon, overlooked by Tigre’s new wooden Lion. Memorable music moments from Patti Smith to The Murder Capital, The National to Loyle Carner, even the sideways rain couldn’t stop you enjoying The Wailers and Sing Along Social. Our youngest festival-goers enjoyed the dedicated kids’ space, Kids Together, where face painters and performers enthralled both parents and kids alike - the little ones even danced in the rain as George Fitzgerald took over the annual Arcadia Kids Rave.
