Along with the beautiful banquet of food available, guests will have their ear canals caressed by a series of tunes from some epic DJs, including Lex Woo, Ted Cardaci an The String Theory Sound System with DJ Mog-Y.
The clue might have been in the name for this one, but the First Tastes dating service wil also be on hand to pair festival strangers with a special picnic and champagne on the lake, to forage festival friendships and maybe even more. Spots for the dating service are €25.00 and will soon be available to book via the Body&Soul website
There will even be a magical masquerade ball on the Saturday evening, with The Correspondants serenading masked revellers.
We'll see you there, champagne in hand.
