The long awaited return of Electric Picnic is less than a month away, and the Anachronica stage has just announced an epic line-up. Commonly dubbed as the festival's "rave in the woods," the stage will host some of the best Irish DJs and dance music.

The lineup consists of famed Irish electronic music stars, like Tommy Holohan, Yasmin Gardezi and Nancy (AKA Nancy Live). They'll be supported by exciting up and comers like Aero, Pagan and more.

Dublin native Tommy Holohan has been one of the leading forces of the rave revival in the past few years. He performed at the last EP in 2019 and has continued to rise rapidly since. Yasmin Gardezi has sold out clubs all over the country, and performed at some of Irelands leading music festivals such as Life Festival, Boxed Off and more. Nancy is a unique act who has made the switch from DJing to performing live sets, playing all of her synths and drums live.

Playing the Anachronica stage is a highly sought aftergig . Sam Greenwood expressed his excitement about his involvement with it this year, writing "this stage was always the elusive gig for me that I really wanted to play. This year not only do I play, but I curate the Saturday night with a crew of the finest."

RAVE IN THE WOODS!

I’ve been involved with the Irish scene since 2009 when I moved here and this stage at @EPfestival was always the elusive gig for me that I really wanted to play.

The stage is equipped with neon lights and a towering stage that "doubles as an art exhibit."  The rave has reached full capacity every year that it has taken place.

This year, Anachronica will kickoff on Friday, September 2nd.
