Yup, you'll be able to see all of the Ward Park action on telly.
BBC Northern Ireland have scored a major coup by securing the broadcast rights to Snow Patrol’s 40,000-capacity Ward Park extravaganza – the biggest gig ever played by a Northern Irish act in their own backyard.
The show will air on both TV and radio during the week following the June 5 shindig.
The Bangor action will unfurl as follows:
4pm – Gates open
4.30pm – General Fiasco
5.45pm – Band Of Horses
7.15pm – Lisa Hannigan
9pm – Snow Patrol
There will also be a second stage featuring such hot to trot local acts as Robyn G Shiels, Cashier No. 9 and Cat Malojian.
Meanwhile, Gary Lightbody’s star-studded Tired Pony side-project make their live bow on July 14 in the London Forum. Their debut album, The Place We Ran From, is out here three days earlier.
