Electric Picnic 2020 acts to include Snow Patrol, Lewis Capaldi and more

The line-up for Electric Picnic, Ireland's biggest festival, has been announced today.

The festival will see Bangor rock group Snow Patrol headline the event, topping off a remarkable comeback for Gary Lightbody's band.

Rage Against the Machine, The Chemical Brothers, Picture This and Lewis Capaldi have also been announced as headliners for this year's Electric Picnic festival, which will take place Stradbally, Co. Laois, this September 3 to 6.

Other acts on the bill are Belfast dance group Bicep, Stones Roses' legend Ian Brown, Run the Jewels, Foals, Skepta, James Vincent McMorrow, Annie Mac, Mabel, Rick Astley, Jeff Mills, Denzel Curry, Helena Hauff, Declan McKenna and dozens more.

The festival will take place on a 600 acre site and will see around 70,000 festival goers - and increase from 55,000 last year - arrive over the course of four days.

The festival is already sold out, long before the headliners were announced, so count yourself lucky if you already got your ticket!
