Noah Kahan, Gerry Cinnamon, Calvin Harris, Kodaline, Kylie Minogue, and Raye were revealed as the headlines for Electric Picnic 2024 this morning, Friday, April 26.

Veteran Irish rebel band The Wolfe Tones are also set to play the festival’s main stage following a record-breaking gig in the Electric Arena last summer.

Other acts on the Electric Picnic lineup this year include Damien Dempsey, The Waterboys, Jazzy, Kneecap, and Ryan McMullan.

While festival organizers had previously announced that tickets were sold out, they said on Friday: “A small number of tickets have just been released due to failed credit card payments.”

US singer-songwriter Noah Kahan shared his excitement about headlining on X on Friday.

"Come watch my set and wear sunscreen!" he said. 

Kahan, who featured Irish singer-songwriter Hozier on a version of his hit song "Northern Attitude," caught some heat from Irish fans when the tour patch for his Irish gig in February said Dublin was in the UK. He later apologized for the gaffe.

Minogue told her followers "see you in summer Ire-la-la-land" with some kissing face emojis.

The Wolfe Tones were equally as excited to "be part of an amazing line-up at Electric Picnic 2024!"

Now in its 20th year, Electric Picnic captured the imagination of the country in 2004 as a one-day event and grew into Ireland’s largest and most loved music and arts festival with 75,000 festival-goers expected for the weekend in Stradbally, Co Laois from August 16 - 18.

Organizers noted that this year, the main stage at Electric Picnic will be connected to the grid and powered by renewable energy, marking the first time a festival of its kind in the UK and Ireland will install mains power to reduce its carbon footprint.
