FESTIVAL OF LIGHT All Together Now

Weekend of fun events with Fleadh still to come

- BY CIARA O'LOUGHLIN

OVER 30,000 festival-goers descended on Waterford's Curraghmore Estate for All Together Now yesterday, as traditional music fans will head to Wexford tomorrow for the start of the Fleadh.

It's set to be a busy August Bank Holiday weekend with hundreds of events taking place across the country.

The biggest is All Together Now, with homegrown talent Fontaines DC storming the stage last night and CMAT headlining tonight.

English punk rap duo Bob Vylan are due to play the Something Kind of Wonderful stage tomorrow.

The musicians were recently embroiled in controversy after chanting "death to the IDF" during their set at Glastonbury earlier this year.

Other acts playing across the weekend include Nelly Furtado, London Grammar, Wet Leg and Primal Scream.

The arts and music festival began in 2018, and its capacity has grown three times bigger since then.
