Almost 50,000 people will make their way to Stradbally, Co Loais for this year's Electric Picnic.

Blur, Sam Smith and Florence and the Machine are among the big names who'll grace the main stage at the event.

There's more than music on offer though - the Newstalk Lounge will be part of the MindField arena - with Sean Moncrieff, Tom Dunne and Off the Ball among those holding court.

Pat Kenny will be talking technology, while George Hook will host his own version of Blind Date on Sunday afternoon.
