electric picnic 2016

Ladies, hold on to your tents – there’s RAIN a comin’.

While Irish festival goers know only too well not to expect Coachella-style climes at home, it sure would be nice not to have to buy a boat before this weekend’s highly anticipated Electric Picnic.

Unfortunately though this coming weekend is on its way with one simple warning: DON’T forget your wellies!

Met Eireann has reported good news for those with a Friday EP pass as – some scattered showers aside – “a good deal of dry weather” is predicted as the favoured festival gets underway.

But sadly the truly dedicated revellers amongst us could be facing “wet and blustery [conditions] with persistent rain” for the rest of the weekend as showers will be a feature of Saturday night and Sunday.

So if your mam offers you a raincoat, poncho or brollie as you head off to Stradbally, make sure you take it.

Still, there is reams of fans who are not dealing well with the sudden news:
