In the run-up to this year's Glastonbury Festival – taking place from June 26-30 – the line-up for the Field Of Avalon area has been unveiled, with Irish acts The Scratch and Kingfishr among the highlights.

The Field of Avalon is described by the festival as "an island in the sea of Glastonbury," which "maintains its unbroken connection to the earthy Eden."

"Once part of the Greenfields it remains as one of the original areas still visited by a diverse lineage of legendary musicians, artists and fellow pilgrims," the description continues. "Festival travellers come to rest their weary legs and recharge with a pint of ale, delicious food and some of the best and diverse musical programs on site.

"Expect days of eclectic music representing the best in the world of contemporary, roots and folk music, a gender equal line-up and intimate, never-forget Glastonbury moments when you visit the Field of Avalon."

Other acts announced for the area today include Baby Queen, Caity Baser, Frank Turner, Skindred, Flyte, Elles Bailey, Billie Marten, All Saints star Shaznay Lewis, Lulu and more.

"Simply cannot explain how massive this is," Kingfishr wrote online, in response to the announcement. "What the hell is going on..."
