For the first time in their 40-year history, La Fura dels Baus land at Electric Picnic this year.

The dramatic arts show called "Human Seed" has been created exclusively for the festival and promises to be a spectacle that "will enthral and excite and quite possibly prove to be the most dazzling performance yet at Electric Picnic".

La Fura dels Baus troupe will create a mesmerising human net with the help and addition of 55 Irish volunteers.

As the human net takes centre stage, it will be raised to a death-defying 40 foot over the wondrous eyes of the picnickers at Stradbally Hall.

Adding further drama to the mesmeric marvel will be a 10 metre moving TRANSFORMER style puppet, that will illuminate the night time skies as it towers over the crowds below.

The Picnic returns to Stradbally Hall in Co. Laois on Friday August 31st. We are counting down the days.
