Melvin Benn, head of Festival Republic and promoter of the music festival ‘Electric Picnic’ says that he is confident that the festival will return in 2021.
Mr Benn appeared on the Dave Fanning Show on RTÉ 2fm stating that a whole new line-up has been planned.
He stated that “We genuinely cancelled all of the artists and started afresh for 2021,” adding that “We’re beginning that planning for 2021 now and talking to different acts about their availability and touring plans”.
He also stated that there were no plans to bring two main stages for next year’s Electric Picnic.
