It was already shaping up to be a tasty event in Marlay Park this summer, and it looks like it’s just gotten even better

With a lineup that already included headline acts Disclosure and Ben Howard, there has been plenty of buzz about how this year’s Longitude festival in Marlay Park in Dublin was shaping up, but today they announced a few more fantastic performers that will guarantee the festival’s three day stint will be a success.

Bombay Bicycle Club, First Aid Kit, Icona Pop, George Ezra and Koreless have all been added to the list of acts that will take to the Rathfarnham venue between July 18th and 20th.

Haim, Bastille and CHVRCHES, the holy trinity of hipster-ness, were on the bill before today, and will be some of the biggest draws without a doubt, while there is plenty of home-grown talent on display too with both Le Galaxie and James Vincent McMorrow sure to bring in plenty of punters.

Tickets go on sale tomorrow at 9am, so you’ll need to be up bright and early to get your hands on the first few before they disappear.
