After a successful 13^th Picnic in Stradbally Hall, promoters have announced tickets for 2017 will go on sale this Friday, September 9^th at 9am and once again offering the ‘discount reward scheme’ as well as a three part instalment plan.

Last weekend saw 55,000 Picnickers enjoy everything Electric Picnic has to offer as the jewel in the Irish festival scene. We’re already looking forward to what 2017 will have in store already. 

“This year was easily my favourite Electric Picnic to date,” said festival director Melvin Benn. “We introduced some new areas to the site for 2016 which proved to be amazing along with implementing some changes from 2015 which were all a success. For 2017, the capacity will remain the same and I’m looking forward to what is in store already next year for both seasoned revellers and new”.

To be eligible for a discount, you will need to prove you’ve been before and in return you’ll get the discount code. The full discount is available to customers who have attended any three previous Picnics. For those who have purchased from Ticketmaster online in the past will receive a code direct from Ticketmaster. For everyone else or if you don’t automatically receive a discount code, three of one type of proof mentioned below or any combination from different years of proofs of purchase and/or attendance will be required.
