The Body & Soul village at Electric Picnic has long been considered the heart of the festival and now, as EP travels headlong towards its tenth birthday party, Body & Soul have announced a jam-packed line-up to celebrate the occasion.

So successful has been the Body & Soul village over the history of Electric Picnic that is has spun-off into its very own standalone festival in Westmeath. Known for its creative artistry, bespoke stages and installations and general good-times vibes, Body & Soul will this year welcome another new stage curated Block T which will offer a unique platform for emerging theatre, performance and art and music.
