Electric Picnic 2020 has been cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In a statement this afternoon organisers confirmed they would not be going ahead with the Laois festival this September.
A spokesperson said: "Cancelling our festival has become unavoidable, and we fully support the Irish Government’s ongoing measures to help fight the spread of Covid-19 and protect lives at this time.
"Whilst the entire Electric Picnic team are terribly disappointed, we have a responsibility to all our fans, artists, crews, suppliers, sponsors, partners and our entire Electric Picnic family including the wonderful people of Stradbally who have welcomed us into their community each year.
"We would like to thank each and every one of them for their fantastic support and outstanding contribution towards making the festival such an amazing event and look forward to welcoming everyone back in 2021 for lots more fun, music, extravagance and magical moments.
"Your ticket refund is available from Ticketmaster or other original point of purchase. Please contact them over the next 30 days.
"If you prefer, for ease, you can retain your ticket and carry it over to next year; you don’t have to do anything."
