As the days countdown towards Electric Picnic 2024, the all-day, late-night, mischief-filled arena that is Fish Town is planning to be wilder than ever this year.
Caged, stray, concealed or revealed, it’s all good at Fish Town, where “normal” is redefined with ringmaster extraordinaire Jerry Fish at the helm.
This year’s line-up includes Don Letts, Jerry Fish feat. MayKay, Mik Pyro, Jack L, David Kitt, High Fade, FangClub, The Bonnevilles, Melts, Sexy Tadhg, Billy Scurry, Kelly Anne Byrne, The Love Buzz and CheryM.
Other stellar acts like Jayne, Anamoe Drive, Boola Boom, Matt Benson, Paranoid Visions, Aoife Destruction and The Nilz, Fierce Pole & Fire Troupe, Regina & The Queens (Drag Show), Sideshow Disco, The Kilo 1977, Dirty Circus, Pontious Pilate & The Naildrivers, The BallyBoyz, The Year That Grunge Broke, Earthquake Hair, Telebox, Gabriel Cavagna, and much, much more are set to grace Fish Town this August.
In its third year deep in the woods of Stradbally, Fish Town is home to The Jerry Fish Electric Sideshow - Circus Tent, three pop-up sideshow stages and The Heart and Anchor Bar, a guaranteed magnet this year with its unique offerings of signature cocktails and sideshow circus themed bespoke drinks.
The whole town is inhabited by circus, cabaret, burlesque, pole, drag and sideshow walkabout performers – you never know who you may bump into at Fish Town!
Electric Picnic takes place from Friday, August 16 to Sunday, August 18 at Stradbally Hall, Co Laois.
