There's one last chance to get a hold of Electric Picnic tickets.

Yes, you read that right - tickets to EP sold out in a nanosecond but if you run or cycle to Stradbally, you'll get to spend the whole weekend at Ireland's biggest festival.

As has been the case for the last decade, Tour de Picnic are staging a charity cycle and run to the festival in September.

Everyone is invited to sign up and secure their ticket while raising money for the ISPCC, The Jack & Jill Foundation and Headway. Even the Housing Minister has signed up this year!

For its tenth birthday celebrations, Tour de Picnic organisers are shaking it up a bit.

Volunteers still have a choice between an 80km cycle or a 17km run, however the new cycle route will be along a new Greenway and Blueway.

The Tour de Picnic also has a new sponsor for 2018, Irish Dairy - The Complete Natural, meaning there will be plenty of milk stops to help keep the runners and cyclists well hydrated on their way to the Picnic.

Garry and Fionnuala caught up with Brian McDermott, Organiser of Tour de Picnic, to find out more.

You can sign up here for a deposit of €50, which guarantees both your ticket to the festival and your place on the 80km cycle or 17km run, provided you meet your fundraising target.

Each person must raise a minimum of €395, or €350 for students, by Thursday 30th August.

The deposit is also counted towards your final fundraising total.
