Electric Picnic

What a way to celebrate the final days of summer: Ireland’s Electric Picnic — a “rock ‘n roll circus”.

Set on the grounds of the 600 acre Stradbally Hall Estate, and less than an hour from Dublin, Electric Picnic combines a whole lot of music, with cabaret, art trails, magic and massages!

For those mourning LCD Soundsystem’s demise, founding member James Murphy will be playing a DJ set at the Little Big Tent. Icelandic band Sigur Rós will headline after a four year touring break. Also be sure to catch UK’s indie pop band The xx, The Cure, and The Killers. And, you still have over 100 choices of other acts!

No matter your taste in music, everyone loves the circus: under the big top you’ll find Fossett’s Circus, Ireland’s very own National Circus!
