Portlaw Residents Stuck During Festival | Waterford News

Residents in Portlaw, County Waterford, are fed up with being trapped in their homes during the All Together Now Festival, as chaotic traffic management leaves them stranded for days—especially Monday after the main event. While organizers draft the plan and council/police review it, locals say the setup is a nightmare. Compounding the issue, overgrown trees near the Curraghmore Estate are becoming dangerous shortcuts for festival traffic, though officials confirm the road isn’t part of the official route and trimming is already planned. The real challenge? Balancing a major event with community livability—and whether next year’s festival will fix what’s broken.
