After four sunny years, Croatia's Electric Elephant festival is packing its trunk, saying goodbye to Petrcane, and trumpeting along the coast to a brand new location for 2012.

The stunning new spot, located a little further along the stunning Adriatic coast near the picturesque town of Tisno, is set in a natural amphitheatre overlooking a beautiful sandy bay and the islands in the distance.

The Garden Tisno has on site apartment accommodation for 300 people, as well as 30 Indian Shikar tents and 120 pitches for campers. More accommodation can be found in Tisno, which is just a ten minute walk away from the site and has plenty of apartments and boutique hotels. What's more, with its location slap bang in the middle of Zadar and Split airports, it's that little bit easier to get to.

The five day festival takes place this year from the 12th - 16th July, bringing with it the usual mix of boat parties, outdoor acts and late night indoor clubbing. 



This year's line-up is looking as special as ever, with Electric Elephant favourites like Andrew Weatherall, Krysko and Unabombers joined by new members of the Elephant family such as Justin Robertson, Ewan Pearson, Ivan Smagghe, Optimo, and loads more.

The full line up so far (in alphabetical order) is as follows:

Andrew Weatherall, Balearic Mike, Capracara, Chris Duckenfield, Ewan Pearson, Feel My Bicep, Ivan Smagghe, Justin Robertson, Kelvin Andrews, Krysko, Loud-E, Lowlife, Mike Simonetti (Italians Do It Better), Nathan Gregory Wilkins, Optimo, Sean Johnston, Will TRAMP!, Unabombers

Tickets for Electric Elephant are now available, priced at just £89.99.
