What are likely to be almost the last batch of tickets for Electric Picnic 2025 sold out in a matter of minutes this afternoon.
Most tickets for the festival have now been snapped up despite the fact that only five acts have been confirmed.
Tickets for the 2025 event went on sale on August 21st last year, selling out within hours even though no acts had been announced at the time.
A final cohort of tickets will be released as part of a promotion by Three phone and broadband company once the final lineup is announced.
