Electric Picnic 2027 has sold out after tickets for next year’s festival went on sale on Friday morning.<\/p>\n
Organisers confirmed that tickets, which went on sale at 10am through the festival\u2019s loyalty scheme and general sale, have now been snapped up.<\/p>\n
No acts have yet been announced for the 2027 festival, which will take place at Stradbally Hall in Co Laois from Friday 27 to Sunday 29 August.<\/p>\n
