Ukrainian refugees will start living in tents on the Electric Picnic site from next week.
The Department of Integration has said that it has found an additional site for the accommodation of Ukrainian refugees in Stradbally.
The government has signed a contract to house 750 people on the County Laois site for a period of six weeks.
It is working with the operators of the Electric Picnic to re-use high-quality tented structures after the festival finishes.
They'll be moved in on a phased basis, starting next Tuesday.
The Department of Integration says there remains a "significant shortfall" in accommodation - meaning, from next week, tents will be the primary source of accommodation for those arriving from Ukraine.
Services for those staying in tents include hot meals, laundry facilities and indoor and outdoor recreation spaces.
Facilities include serviced showers and toilets, and indoor and outdoor dining facilities.
There's been an increase in arrivals over the summer, with an average of 650 fleeing to Ireland every week.
