This morning.
Tickets for next year’s Electric Picnic went on sale at 9am.
And in Portlaoise, Co Laois, some people queued since 4.30am.
Lynda Kiernan, of the Leinster Express, reports:
A massive queue has formed in Portlaoise this morning Friday September 9 of people hoping to snap up Electric Picnic 2019 tickets.
Watch our video of the entire queue to see where it starts from, and it was still growing at 9.30am.

So next year, a deposit should be charged per tent going in and refunded going out ?
Yes! Fantastic idea.
Get a life would ya lol.
Get a bin bag and fill it would ya lol.
@Ron Not yours, thanks.
Are they hard to get? Why don’t people buy them online. These people look like they’re going to try and sell them for a profit tbh.
Queuing for festival tickets? Some of that brigade looked old enough to have queued to see the Pope in 1979. Best of luck to them, but I’d rather have a brandy and put my feet up of a weekend.
Nathan carter is the headliner.
I guess ticket touts come in all shapes & sizes
I found this from a friend sharing it. The most tragic line-up I’ve ever seen. Posh people with no taste:

Queuing for their lazy-arsed kids?
Not at all pet; you sleep off that hangover and I’ll get the tickets for ya
They’re obviously queuing for their spoilt, tent-dumping kids.
This queue is for an actual picnic.
i actually watched that phucking video. it’s a queue. a few people say “waaahey” when they see they’re being filmed. there’s a big vape shop in portlaoise. and, I think, a gun and rod shop.
that’s it.
There is definitely also a courthouse. Don’t ask me how I know that, but there is.
Probably at peak busy time after EP, what with all those caught with drugs on the way in
And not one, but TWO prisons.
to be sure, to be sure!
It’s a queue for the Pope’s visit –
word has only just reached Portlaoise.
Hang on. Have I been pronouncing it incorrectly all these years? I say port-leesh. Do I have to add the -sha at the end? Why isn’t it Port”laois” like the county?
It used to be Portlaoise-ah-no.
Someone chopped off the No and forgot to take the Ah with it.
Simple
Parasitical misanthropes
