As is often the case with the gigantic festival, tickets for Electric Picnic have already sold out. This comes despite the fact that capacity was increased this year.
The band has also confirmed that through ticketing, volunteering and band donations, they will be working with multiple charities and activist organisations throughout the tour.
In addition, 100% of all proceeds from their El Paso, Las Cruces and Phoenix concerts will go to immigrant rights organisations. Sound lads.
