Right, was looking for more like exactly where the festival is in Lisbon??? There is also no camping at the festival so I was wondering about travel to and from the Lisbon camp site? Bus probs, but I've little idea of how far away the camp site is away from everything... Also are there beaches near the camp site?

I've also no idea how popular the festival is... When do tickets start selling out and what's the capacity?

Just a few thoughts...

There is a camp site in Lisbon:

Don't know about transport though...

You dont need to book tent camping....

_______________________________

Hello

Isn't necessary to book for tents. Our camping is very big and so you have always place.

You can visit us www.lisboacamping.com

Best regards

wondering what does it mean headliner at that festival?

last year Dylan was headliner, and after him Within Tempation played.

same happened next day, after awesome Neil Young gig, we had Ben Harper.

so DMB might not be the last band playing on saturday nite

New Update:

Line Up:

Day 9

Main Stage: Metallica (Headliner), Slipknot, Lamb of God, Mastodon

Second Stage: Klaxons, TV on the Radio, Erol Alkan, Crystal Castles

Day 10

Main Stage: Placebo

Second Stage: The Ting Tings

Day 11

Main Stage: Dave Matthews Band (Headliner)

Second Stage: Los Campesinos

Some say this year the indie bands are confined to the secondary stage. Another odd thing is NIN and JA confirmed for July 12 in Oxegen and not in T in the Park, so I guess they are a strong possibility for July 10. Adding the fact there are some similarities with Sonisphere festivals...

Oh, and Chris Cornell is rumored to play on the 11th
