Mark Ronson, The Futureheads, Calvin Harris, Pendulum, Lightspeed Champion, Ty, Trophy Twins and Part Time Heroes join an already extensive line-up with the promise of more to be announced shortly.
Taking place from 27th-29th June at Blenheim Palace, Woodstock, Oxfordshire and then a week later (4th-6th July) at Abersoch, Cardigan Bay, Wales, day tickets went on sale yesterday priced at £40 each.
