Rage Against the Machine's last Irish show was at the O2 (now the 3Arena) in June 2010.
They made their Irish debut at Dublin's Tivoli Theatre in August 1993, before playing the Féile festival in Semple Stadium, Thurles, Co Tipperary the following July. They later played the Oxegen festival at Punchestown Racecourse, Naas, Co Kildare in July 2008.
The Electric Picnic Festival runs from Friday, September 4 to Sunday, September 6.
