Electric Picnic 2012
Electric Picnic will return for its ninth iteration in 2012. The Electric Picnic is now a mainstay on the Irish festival scene and with Oxegen dropping out from the 2012 festival lineups it will be Ireland’s biggest festival for 2012.
The music festivals for 2012, missing Oxegen will be looking to the Electric Picnic for the big names of the summer. It’s not normally the mantra of Electric Picnic, but it may be a temptation too great to ignore with their biggest competitor taking a break. So here is the hub page we have for tracking everything Electric Picnic 2012 which will include the full lineup as we get told the bands. Ticket information, camping details, maps and stage schedules and more. Bookmark it now.
