The organisers of Electric Picnic are once again looking for people just like you to help deck out its Trailer Park area.

If you fancy adding to a "strange new world, a camp of hilarious caravans and utilitarian mobile homes" you could be given up to €1500 towards the cost of creating it.

For the past two years over thirty creators have been given grants to help them realise their wildest ideas, and become part of one of the strangest design communities in the country.

Artistic Director of Trailer Park, Roz Jellett said "In Trailer Park we really do set out to make people laugh. It is a liberating experience which marries creativity, silliness and style."

"Designs should celebrate the ethos of what Trailer Park is, an outrageous holiday enclosure which champions the creative imagination, and everything inventive, unconventional, and delightfully bonkers about the world!"

The judges for this year will be led by Keith Payne whose enormous inflatable sculptures for the stage-sets of The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd are renowned worldwide.

Ten cash grants are up for grabs, ranging from €150 to €1,500 and there's one larger grant, only if an "exceptional" idea excites those in control of the purse strings.
