ALERT: Delays and queues reported as fans try to exit Electric Picnic car parks in Laois
Motorists seeking to leave any of the car parks at the Electric Picnic site in Stradbally are being urged to be patient
Long delays have been reported in-and-around the site of Electric Picnic in Stradbally this Sunday afternoon as some fans seek to exit the car parks.
A record 80,000 people have descended on the sprawling Laois venue for this year's festival which began on Friday afternoon and which has featured headline performances from acts such as Kneecap, Hozier, Chappell Roan, Sam Fender and Fatboy Slim.
Kings of Leon, Kingfshr, Ewan McVicar, David Gray, Becky Hill, King Kong Company, DJ Heartstring and Bernard O’Shea are among the big acts to star on the Main Stage, Electric Arena, Comedy Arena, 3Music Stage, and Terminus on the final day of Electric Picnic 2025.
While this year's festival continues into the early hours of Monday, some of the record crowds have reported long delays and queues as they attempt to leave car parks around the site. "Huge queues to get out of the car parks. I've been sitting in traffic for an hour," one person told the Leinster Express / Laois Live.
Kings of Leon have the honour of being the final Main Stage act of the 2025 music and arts festival in Stradbally.
