Calvin Harris, Kylie Minogue and Noah Kahan have been announced to headline Electric Picnic 2024.

Ireland's largest gathering of music and arts returns to Stradbally, Co Laois from August 16th to 18th.

The three-day festival has been moved back to August from September to accommodate specific artists.

Tickets for the event are already sold out but organisers say a "very limited" number are on sale.

Other artists on the ticket include Kodaline, Faithless and Gerry Cinnamon.

Jazzy, Damien Dempsey and Sophie-Ellis Bextor round out some of the top talent at Electric Picnic this year.

The Wolfe Tones will also play the main stage after they drew major crowds last year.

Organisers have previously said  they wanted more female headliners at the festival after singer Billie Eilish was the only female headliner last year.

Organiser Melvin Benn said he is 'delighted' with this year's line up which is "ticking every single box".

"Noah Kahan, who's at the top of the world at the moment, just seems to have taken the world by storm immediately - it's incredible," he said.

This year's festival will also see the main stage connected to the grid and powered by renewable energy.

Electric Picnic marks the first time a festival of its kind in Ireland or the UK will install mains power to reduce its carbon footprint.
