Electric Picnic 2023 takes over the Stradbally Estate, in Co Laois, this weekend – and we can exclusively reveal all the stage times for the Main, Electric Arena, Rankin’s Wood, Terminus and Three Music stages.

Weather forecast

Conditions over Electric Picnic weekend will be “as good as can be expected during this time of the year” with some risk of showers on Friday according to Met Éireann. The weather for the concert will be “overall dry with temperatures warming up over the weekend”, said Siobhán Ryan, duty forecaster for Met Éireann.

Temperatures of 19 or 20 degrees are expected on Friday as Billie Eilish and Niall Horan take the main stage, with 21- or 22-degree temperatures on Saturday when Tom Odell and Paolo Nutini are due to perform. Sunday will see temperatures of about 22 degrees, according to the national forecaster, so the weather is never going to let you down as Rick Astley takes the stage, along with The Killers and The Script.

Winds will be slack over the weekend, with little or no breeze in the Stradbally, Co Laois area, creating “ideal conditions for camping” according to Ms Ryan who warned that temperatures could drop during the night in Laois, where Electric Picnic is taking place.
