I imagine taxi's back to Cascais after the festival will be expensive and have long queues. Thanks! Can't comment on the trains at night but in terms of taxi's we used Uber each night and managed to get one pretty quickly and didn't find it to be too expensive!

When I've been there, I always took the train to Cais do Sodré (Lisbon city center) and it was crowdy but ok. I imagine the ones to Cascais should be less crowdy. Regarding the prices: they sell combo tickets festival+train on the official site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSaul Posted January 29, 2020 Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 I stayed about an hours walk from the festival site last year but we got those electric uber bikes back and forth everyday. Only took us 15 mins on them. Great fun and no exercise required but a little dangerous when you're wobbly from the nights festivities! 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gfran Posted January 30, 2020 Report Share Posted January 30, 2020 We're going to be in Lisbon the same time as this with our daughter who will be 5 and a half. It says children under 6 won't be permitted, does anyone know how likely it is they will check her ID etc? We're desperate to go for a day but don't want to spend 200 quid if we'll just be turned away. Any advice from those who have been before and know the set up etc. would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJ_Ketchup Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 This year will be my first time at NOS, for those who have been before, how big are the grounds? I took a look at a map online and it looks rather small,, not that I'm used to gigantic festivals, but does it get quite crowded, how are the queues etc? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers The worst thing about the grounds is how in between the main two stages they have put third third biggest stage in the direction that the crowd blocks the walkway, so sometimes getting between the two main stages can take ages in big crowds. Other than that, bar queues are usually okay and it feels a nice size 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can cut down past the comedy stage, it's further to walk but it cuts out the mad crowds at peak times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True though at peak times this was nearly as bad and also I think the amount of people going into the mens toilets would mean this way was partially blocked with people. Still I dont think I missed anyone for queuing so no problems! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJ_Ketchup Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 Moses Sumney really reminds me of FKA Twigs, does anyone know if he does 'full performances' (dance / scenography etc) on stage as well ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally love both as live acts but no, Moses doesn't have "full performances" like twigs. His voice is AMAZING live though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
