ELECTRIC Picnic will return for the first time in two years, with the festival having a line-up including Arctic Monkeys, Tame Impala and Dermot Kennedy.
The acts were announced yesterday (Thursday March 10) for its much-anticipated return to the 600-acre site at Stradbally, Co Laois in September.
It will be held from September 2-4 with an expected 70,000 people attending, which would make it the biggest year yet for Ireland’s largest music and arts festival.
Additionally, the capacity of the main stage field has been increased by moving the position of the stage, which will give picnickers improved views.
Among the other main acts are Megan Thee Stallion, Picture This, Snow Patrol, Fontaines DC, Annie Mac, Glass Animals, Pixies and Anne-Marie.
Here is your first look at the #EP22 line up!
