"Roll up! Roll up! The all day long,  late-night, mischief-filled arena that is Fishtown is planning to be even wilder than ever for Electric Picnic 2025," organisers shared.

"Caged, stray, concealed or revealed, it’s all good at Fish Town, this is where we redefine “normal” with ringmaster extraordinaire Jerry Fish at the helm."

Now in its fourth year, deep in the woods of Stradbally Estate, Fishtown is home to The Jerry Fish Electric Sideshow - Circus Tent, three pop up Sideshow Stages and The Heart and Anchor Bar. The whole town is inhabited by circus, cabaret, burlesque, pole, drag and sideshow walkabout performers – you never know who you may bump into at Fish Town.

"Fish Town would not be complete without its dandy concoction of carnival sideshow theatre, and this year we have doubled the carnival," organisers teased.

"Expect unearthly performances from Fire and Pole Queens, Fierce Family Troupe, The Pony Girls (Our Police Force), Regina & The Queens (Drag Show) Time Travel Theatre, Wobbly Circus, Miss Mary Jane, Dirty Circus and many more of our Sideshow Sweethearts. Fishtown promises once again to be a highlight of this year’s Picnic, delivering three debauched days and nights of mind blowing, soul bending entertainment! Under its unwavering banner of  ‘unity through diversity’."

Jerry Fish and MayKay will perform songs from his new album ‘Dreaming of Daniel’  a tribute to the late, great Daniel Johnston and much more on Friday after midnight at The Jerry Fish Electric Sideshow in Fish Town, escorted by pole dancing queens Terri Fierce and Trena, plus a sideshow carnival troupe. Don't miss this show!

 Organisers have promised that in Fish Town, the party is never over! 

Jerry Fish is one of Ireland’s most enigmatic and entertaining performers to the point where Electric Picnic have afforded him his very own Fish Town.

An indie legend and ringmaster of exceptional renown, Jerry Fish has evolved into a showman extraordinaire, capturing the hearts and minds of audiences all over with his now legendary live shows, a unique live theatrical experience that dissolves all boundaries between performer and audience. 

These days the name Jerry Fish is synonymous with festivals, carnival sideshow, circus and theatre.
