"The Stradbally festival was only on last weekend, but tickets for next year's edition were in high demand. The music fest will be held between Friday, August 28 and Sunday, August 30 next year. Prices were unchanged, with weekend camping for next year starting from €245.50 and going up as far as €325.50. Speaking to reporters on Sunday, festival director Melvin Benn confirmed two of the headliners for next year's Electric Picnic have already been booked."
"Mr Benn also teased the possibility of an expanded offering of entertainment on the Thursday evening of the festival for the early arrivals to Stradbally. While there wouldn't be a full-on fourth day of Electric Picnic, he said there could be "one or two more stages" open on Thursday evening and there is a demand there for it. Tickets made available in a pre-sale on Monday also sold out quickly."
