Met Eireann advises those travelling to Stradbally to bring their rain gear as over 80,000 are expected to attend Electric Picnic during a weekend of unpredictable weather.
The weather forecast for the weekend is mixed, as dry and sunny spells coupled with wet conditions coincide with the music festival. Thursday will be mostly dry for arriving festival goers, with chances of light showers later tonight.
Friday will start off with warm sunshine but the weather may give way to heavy showers by mid afternoon. Met Eireann’s Joanna Donnelly told people spending the majority of the weekend outdoors to keep an eye on the forecast, as windy conditions were likely.
