Tickets for the event go on sale this Friday (7 December) at 9am.
Festival director Geoff Ellis says: "It seems like only yesterday that the first band took to the stage at Strathclyde Park for our inaugural T in the Park in 1994.
"Here we are in 2012 announcing two of the of the world's biggest and best acts to headline our 20th edition."
Last year's T in the Park was headlined by Snow Patrol, The Stone Roses and Kasabian.
After a sunny start to the 2012 festival, heavy rain fell turning much of the site into a mudbath.
