One of Ireland’s biggest Festivals Electric Picnic has sold out well in advance of liftoff.
But, don’t worry if you have missed out I bring you good news. You can still go the Tour De Picnic Route.
Back for its 6th annual instalment Tour de Picnic will be bigger and better than ever.
Tour de Picnic is a sponsored cycle to a very special destination – the one and ONLY Electric Picnic!
Participants must raise €380 (€280 for students) and complete an 80km cycle from Dublin to Laois to earn tickets to Ireland’s biggest arts and music festival. And that’s not all wait and your hear this. Tour de Picnic will even have your belongings waiting with your tickets at the finish and will transport your bike back to Dublin, leaving you to relax and enjoy your weekend of music and fun!
By choosing this route you’ll be helping support the wonderful Barnardos Charity with there terrific work with children and their families too. So Lollys Love/Hate is calling all Festival Revellers who have missed out to get on their bikes for this unique event. To register for the Event you must pay a deposit of only 50euro but this 50euro goes towards your 380euro that you have to raise for Barnardos. To register go to www.electricpicnic.ie
I have to say, I went to EP last year for the first time in my life and it was the best weekend of my life. The people, the music, the atmosphere, the food, the fun, the circus, amusement rides. There is something there for everyone. It’s such a clean festival; the toilets were cleaned regularly which was great. If you just want to chill out, relax and take in some amazing music, art, talent EP it is. You have to get there. You can even get your hair and make-up done up there. It’s unbelievable set up. I didn’t bother last year I actually enjoyed letting myself go because no body around you cares because everybody is in the same boat.
It attracts many fantastic International Acts. The line up is fantastic this year too with Hey Ya – Outkast one of my favourite bands playing. I am so happy they got back together. I’m going to dance my little cotton socks off to them and many many more such as Blondie, Lilly Allen, Paolo Nutini, Sinead O’Connor is also to grace the stages with the Pet Shop Boys and many many more.
It’s an amazing experience with a laid back atmosphere. You will meet loads of great people. Its one way to end the summer in Epic Lolly Style!
