Electric Picnic returns to Stradbally in Co. Laois from Friday, August 31st- Sunday, September 2nd.
Kendrick Lamar, Massive Attack, N.E.R.D and Dua Lipa are among those taking to the stage across the weekend.
But, the sold-out festival has many more attractions for festival revellers aside from those who will take to the Main Stage: and one of the big appeals is the much-loved Body and Soul that is located at the centre of the festival.
Body&Soul returns to its roots to celebrate landmark 15th year as the creative centre of Electric Picnic.
Body&Soul’s original ethos is one that creates a space apart from the norm, where great ideas are exalted alongside great parties and the holistic arts have equal standing with the prodigious musicians.
Here are the artists that will perform in the area across the weekend:
