The first line-up announcement for this summer's Body & Soul festival at Ballinlough Castle in Co. Westmeath has been made this morning with the likes of Goldfrapp, Caribou, John Grant, Darkside, Jon Hopkins and Mount Kimbie all confirmed to appear.
The festival will take place over the Summer Solstice weekend, 20-22nd June.
This will be the fifth edition of the festival which has, in that time, emerged as one of the best and most creative festival experiences our country has to offer.
There is a tiered ticketing system in place this year and, given the tickets have been on sale for some time now, only tier 4 and 5 tickets remain at this point. Tier 4 tickets will set you back €129.50, while tier 5 adds an extra tenner to that. You can also avail of a combined weekend & bus ticket (from Dublin, that is) and that's €157.50 and €167.50 respectively.
More line-up info is expected before too long and we'll bring that to you as soon as it's available.
