Electric Picnic 2016 // **Discussion Only / NO Ticket Sales / Requests** //

Sure just make it the ten miles to one of the Portlaois petrol stations, wire a chicken fillet roll into you, and you'll be grand. There is nowhere you can go to escape the Monday morning fear

hi people, staying in the camper van area this year, what the craic with facilities, nearest showers etc, thanks in advance.

The facilities are rubbish! Basically you are paying 80 quid to park in a field. Last year the toilet drop was full by Saturday lunchtime and not emptied for the rest of the weekend. I don't think there are any showers in the campervan area.

Simply put, you should just sell me your campervan ticket and be done with it
Just kidding, but I am not kidding about the facilities. If you expect anything special for your 80 quid, you will be very disappointed.

I've never camped there but visited friends up there and there's lots of space (unsurprising when you're so bloody far from the main arena). Seems pretty friendly between the campervans, lots of tables out for food & drinks. A big bonus is getting in on Thursday night and avoiding all the queues.

Went in on the Thursday night last year and we were parked in the laneway queueing for about 90 minutes. Waking up Friday morning already at the festival with an optional hangover is a bonus. There is plenty of room per camper, you get your camper plus 4 metres on one side for your awning or a gazebo. I think this is also a fire regulation. It is definitely friendly up there. I have never heard any reports of theft or other issues.
