Dara O'Briain
Irish Comedian Dara Ó Briain admitted his plans for a relaxed afternoon slot at the Electric Picnic with no headline competition have gone seriously awry.
In a post on X the comedian said: “So, the plan for @EPfestival then; get a lovely, relaxed mid-afternoon slot, and sure, you won’t be up against anything too high-profile, or noisy, or energetic, that the entire world, including you, is dying to see.”
