Electric Picnic 2004 was the year it all started. It started as a one day event for 10,000 people on a gloriously sunny September Saturday. It was a first for Ireland and destined to keep going for a very long time.

The festival was christened ‘The Festival of Good Intentions’, with its laidback attitude and nothing else in the country to rival it, it is no wonder that Electric Picnic became firmly entrenched as a must go to event in the Festival calendar.

“It seems that those who went simply in search of some good craic, enjoyed a fun day that was miraculously blessed with amazing weather.”
