Air Hubs

New in 2023, we introduced AIR Hubs across our campsites at Electric Picnic. AIR is an acronym for ASSISTANCE, INFORMATION & RESPONSE and we will be working with local community groups and charities to run these hubs for us, with the support of our existing safeguarding and welfare partners at the festival. The groups involved with the Electric Picnic AIR Hubs to are Vision Ireland, ISPCA, SOSAD Ireland,  Portarlington Women’s Shed, Teac Tom, Portlaoise AFC and Laois Cricket Club.

There will be 14 of these in total across the campsites and arena, meaning you will never be too far away from a friendly face or listening ear when at Electric Picnic.

AIR Hubs will be open 24 hours in all campsites, from Thursday through to Monday until the campsites close.

AIR Hubs in the arena will be open during arena operating hours.
