Razorlight make their return to Belfast after their two-night stint at the Waterfront Hall in February when they headline the first day of the Tennent's Vital Festival at the Botanic Gardens on Tuesday 21 August.
Arguably overqualified for the opening slot are the Manic Street Preachers, who give their first live airing of Send Away The Tigers to Irish audiences.
The festival bill is set to expand, with the main stage line-up for Wednesday 22 August yet to be announced, and the return of the Radio 1 Incoming Tent, featuring rising acts.
There's some changes afoot, however. Two-day tickets will now be available for the more enthusiastic gig-goers at £70stg, though they're also available separately at £38.
