Electric Picnic has officially sold out, after additional tickets that were released at 12pm on Monday were snapped up in just 15 minutes.

Hozier, Chappell Roan, Sam Fender, Fatboy Slim and Kings of Leon have been announced as headliners for the festival, which takes place from August 29th-31st in Stradbally, Co Laois.

Hozier and Chappell Roan will both headline the Friday night, with Hozier returning to the Electric Picnic Main Stage to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his debut album.

Chappell Roan, who has established herself as "your favourite artist's favourite artist," makes her Stradbally debut, bringing the Pink Pony Club to Co Laois.

On Saturday at Electric Picnic, Brit Award-winner and multi-platinum artist Sam Fender and the icnonic Fatboy Slim will take to the stage.

English singer-songwriter Fender is perhaps best known for his hits 'Seventeen Going Under', 'Get You Down', and 'Spit of You'.

Kings of Leon will headline the festival on the Sunday. Although they have played in Ireland numerous times, they are only now making their Picnic debut.

Known for classic hits like 'Sex On Fire' and 'Use Somebody', the American rock band will undoubtedly attract a large crowd on the final day of the festival.

Usually, there are two headliners for each day of the three-day festival, leaving fans wondering who could be the sixth addition to this star-studded lineup.

In 2023, the festival did not announce the sixth and final headliner, The Script, until just days before the event got underway.

Many more acts are yet to be announced for Ireland's biggest music and arts festival, which hosted Noah Kahan, Calvin Harris and Kylie Minogue in 2024.

The festival organisers have said, however, that there will be a Three Last Chance offering for tickets, available via the Three+ app, when the final lineup is announced.

The festival also recently announced upgrades to their campsites  in 2025.

At no extra cost to your ticket, there is now brand-new pre-booked options on the site.

The Glitterball site is supported by gender-inclusive teams who are dedicated to creating a safe and welcoming environment for all.

There will be showers and toilets, and GRWM station with mirrors, plugs for straighteners and dryers.

At the expanded, environmentally conscious Eco Camp, there will be extra toilets and showers, with sustainability workshops and hands-on activities throughout the weekend, while for a more calming experience, there is the Poets Camp, , with limited noise after 1am.

The Gaeltacht campsite returns once again to the Picnic, and campers will have the opportunity to pitch their tents in the company of other Irish language speakers.
