All Together Now organisers issue ticket warning ahead of festival
Any revellers hoping to snap up some last minute tickets for All Together Now this weekend have been warned to avoid 'unauthorised sellers' as scammers are running rampant. The hugely popular Waterford festival, which is completely sold out, will see Nelly Furtado, Fontaines D.C., CMAT and more taking to the stage over three days in Curraghmore Estate. Music lovers planning on travelling to the estate who didn't manage to snag a pass during the year are now being urged to steer clear of fraudsters taking advantage of the chaos to make a quick buck - as festival organisers reveal that they are inundated with messages about potential punters being scammed. A spokesperson for the festival said: "Festival goers are strongly advised to avoid purchasing tickets or campervan passes from unauthorised sellers. "We have received a significant number of messages from people who have been scammed when trying to buy tickets through unofficial channels, particularly through a Facebook group claiming to resell tickets for our events."

The organisers stressed: "ATN will never sell or resell tickets via Facebook groups, social media pages, or private messages. "These scammers are professional and convincing. If you choose to buy tickets from unverified sources, you are taking a serious risk, and we cannot help recover any lost money or guarantee entry to the event."

This kid, 4, features in Oasis' reunion tour alongside Scottish town
Oscar Borland features in the official programme for the rock and roll band, who recently returned to the stage for the first time in 16 years. The Gallagher brothers are playing to sold-out arenas across the globe and the four-year-old will feature in the pamphlet at all gigs. READ NEXT: Fontaines D.C. fans are all wearing this ONE thing to TRNSMT READ NEXT: I saw Jake Bugg at TRNSMT - he should have been on the Main Stage The picture was taken in Erskine earlier this year (Image: Supplied) Raymond, Oscar's dad, explained how the opportunity came about. He said: "I have been a huge Oasis fan ever since I can remember. From 1996 onwards I was hooked. "As I have gotten older, and during the time period when the band had broken up, I have been really into collecting Oasis memorabilia. "As a result of this obsession, I got to know Brian Cannon, who designed a lot of things for the band at their peak, such as album covers. "We became good friends after I started going to his shop Mircobot Boutique, down south in Kendal, which sells merchandise from the band and other groups." The programme is currently available for sale at the gigs (Image: Supplied) Despite his age, Raymond says his son realises something exciting is happening. He also opened up on the meaning behind Oscar's picture in the programme. Raymound continued: "Brian knew there would not be any new music on this tour and wanted to design the programme like an album cover, with 20 pages to fill. "The idea he came up with was to base the pictures in the programme around B-side songs that some fans think should have been singles. "I jokingly said about getting Oscar involved and amazingly it ended up happening. "Oasis have a song called Fade Away and the lyrics Brian referred to were 'The dreams we have as children fade away.' "Oscar was photographed on a football pitch in Erskine, throwing the Definitely Maybe Globe in the air and a flight case with Oasis on it beside him, the idea being he was dreaming of being in the band. "Noel Gallagher had the final say and he signed it off." Oscar was "very excited" to appear in the programme (Image: Supplied) Oasis will play three gigs at Murrayfield next month and Raymond, who will be attending two of the concerts with friends, and family, can't wait to see the programme in person. He added: "The family are all so proud of Oscar and he was brilliant throughout the shoot. "I didn't want to see the finished product until it was confirmed Oscar would be in the programme. "I am really happy with how it turned out and can't wait to buy it at the gigs."
