Electric Picnic 2024: Date change announced for the festival.
While we’re just over a week away from this year’s Electric Picnic festival, speculation is still rife over who will be the mystery headline act yet to be announced.
The name of the headliner, which is set to play on Sunday alongside The Killers, has been blurred from promotional pictures and looks set to remain a mystery until at least a few days before the festival.
There are multiple rumours of possible acts floating around the internet, where tour dates leave a convenient gap on the weekend of the Stradbally festival.
Acts such as Lana Del Rey, Blink 182 and Blur are all strong contenders for the secret spot.
