Win a pair of Electric Picnic tickets with ESB Electric Ireland

Hi folks,

For the third year running, ESB Electric Ireland and Electric Picnic are teaming up. Once again, we will be returning to Stradbally in September as official energy partner to Ireland’s favourite festival.

This year, our theme will be all about inviting festival goers to Share The Energy - their own energy, the festival’s energy, and of course ESB Electric Ireland’s energy. Anybody can do this by visiting our on-site, 100% sustainable ESB Electric Ireland Park, where our energy-creating see-saws, merry-go-round and giant hamster wheel will allow people to set their inner child free while generating sustainable energy in the process. There’ll also be a much needed free mobile phone recharging station that will be powered by a bicycle bank.

We have a pair of tickets to give away just for you Boardsies. To be in with a chance to win just post a comment below – if you need inspiration for a comment, why not name your favourite band or tell us what electrical appliance you would miss most at a weekend away at Electric Picnic.

Winners will be chosen at random, and the competition will run until midnight, Sunday 21st August - see our Terms & Conditions here.

Best of luck!

PS: We’ve also got other ways for you to win tickets – check out our newly launched Facebook page where we have 5 pairs of tickets to give away for 5 days this week and a ticket hunt starting next week!

I decided to tell you a joke.

A peanut walked into a police station.

He said he was a-salted.

The cop turned to his colleague and said, this guys nuts!

Interpol are always worth a watch. Arcade Fire to recreate their legendary gig of 2005?

Keeping it Irish I'd love tickets to go see The Hot Sprockets, And So I Watch You From Afar, James Vincent Mc Morrow, Mola.

Don't think there's any appliance I'd miss really. Although would be delighted not to have to use the alarm clock!

God, I'd love me some tickets. Failing that, any chance I could be one of the cyclists powering the phone recharging facility? Gotta get to EP somehow!

I will miss my shower (I know, I know there will be showers there, but I will miss my shower).

I will however not miss Arcade Fire, Dj Shadow, Interpol or Pulp.

No idea who's on the bill this year, but it'd be a crime not to get my name in.

Struggling to last til February for Rammstein, but Public Enemy at the Picnic would certainly help matters

Would really love to see Amanda Brunker added to the line-up.
I guess I would settle for a bit of Arcade fire though

If only I could have a toaster in my tent.
I'd be careful not to start an Arcade Fire in the campsite, making me some kind of Public Enemy and resulting in me turning to the Underworld being chased around by Interpol. If they ever caught me I'd only tell them White Lies

I'll be counting The Minutes til this competition ends, and if I won The Rapture would be so immense that I'd be smiling from Mundy to Gavin Friday :pac:
