The 2025 International Rose of Tralee is one of the more than 80,000 people who have descended on Stradbally in County Laois for this year's Electric Picnic music and arts festival.

Speaking to the Leinster Express / Laois Live, Katelyn Cummins says it has been an "unbelievable" weekend so far and that she is looking forward to seeing Kingfishr on the main stage this Sunday evening.

The 20-year-old from Ballyouskill in Kilkenny, who lives in Laois, took to the stage alongside the Timahoe Male Choir earlier this Sunday afternoon.
