Fatboy Slim and Snow Patrol have been revealed as the latest headliners for next year's Latitude festival.
They join music legend Sting for the 2025 music and arts event at Henham Park, near Southwold in Suffolk, from 24-27 July.
Snow Patrol played the inaugural Latitude in 2006 and said they were "delighted" to be back, while Fatboy Slim said headlining the festival had been on his bucket list.
Festival director Melvin Benn said the additions would "guarantee a weekend of incredible music".
"Latitude 2025 is shaping up to be one of our most unforgettable editions yet," he said.
"Bringing together iconic artists like Sting, Snow Patrol and Fatboy Slim guarantees a weekend of incredible music and unique performances."
Snow Patrol, best known for songs including Chasing Cars, Just Say Yes and Take Back the City, last headlined the festival in 2022 and were joined on stage by local hero Ed Sheeran.
The band will close the event next year.
"We are delighted to play Latitude again," they said.
"We’ve had so many amazing memories from playing there... we’re excited to get back to Latitude again for the third time."
Fatboy Slim, whose real name is Norman Cook, last played the festival in 2017 and is known for songs like Praise You, Weapon of Choice and Right Here, Right Now, as well as being in The Housemartins and Beats International.
He will celebrate 30 years as a DJ next year.
"I'm honoured that Latitude has invited me back, this time to headline the main stage," he said.
"It's a big tick on my bucket list. I can't wait to be at the helm of the collective euphoria the great people of Suffolk and I can create."
Further line-up announcements for Latitude are expected in November.
