'FISH⚓TOWN'

by Steve Simpson

Roll up! roll up! Jerry Fish’s majestic, magnificent and at moments macabre “Electric Sideshow” delivers all manner of musical delights and wonders. The wild show features everything from circus performers to one of the most lively and engaging artists in Ireland right now. A ringmaster of exceptional renown, Fish has evolved into a showman extraordinaire, not to be missed.” ~ Hot Press Magazine

I've been working with Jerry Fish developing his 'Electric Sideshow' branding for almost 10 years. It's given me a sense of great pride to stand outside the bigtop at night and see our enormous skull lit up at Irish festivals over the years. Just prior to the pandemic hitting we had started planning moving Jerry's Electric Picnic show from the main arena to a brand new, larger area in the woods; "FISH⚓TOWN". It's been a stop/start project for the past few years with lockdowns but this year it's finally happened. Additional to the existing big top we have designed and built bar, 3 new small stages, entrance arches and signage. The plan is for this to be an ongoing project - so more fun stuff to design year on year:))
