I'm happy to read this. So two more headliners to be confirmed. Still some hope for BLUR.

I've been told they will be announced but not as main stage headliners

[mahoneypepe]

surely new order still have major pulling power, in terms of drawing in the punters?

i saw them in December and the new line up was excellent - didn't miss hooky at all!

decent pulling power: yep.

Headliner (for a big fest) pulling power: definitely not in the UK, tho things may be different in Spain.

would they be all the ones that are getting announced today or will there be more? hate being drip fed the acts argh so frustrating

[Ben Holland]

I really don't get the "i Hope they are not headliners" argument. I've been to Benni a few times and none of the so called Headliners have actually been last act on the main stage. Sometimes the headliners play at 9pm and sometimes at 12am. It doesn't work like Glasto, V Fest & R&L.

This is what makes Benni a great festival.

If New Order are annouced....it will be an amazing booking.

Brandy hips confirmed so this is looking like it could be true!

[chel]

That will be all today, they usually announce more acts every 3/4 weeks right up till the festival

Yeah i think if they were headlining they would have mentioned that explicitly so that's good.

[davywalsh7]

So is there any rumours as to who the other headliners actually will be?

[Ben Holland]

Do headliners not get a longer setlist?

[Boothy380]

They're above Florence on the poster. So if Florence is headlining then so are New Order. What a load of shit when everywhere else has The Cure/Radiohead/Bjork etc

[Createur]

Hmm...New Order are 2nd to The Stone Roses on the newest poster, above Florence and she is a confirmed headliner.

[davywalsh7]

completely confused with all the speculation, wish they would just tell us if they're headlining

[chel]

i heard somewhere that they always have a dance act as a headliner?
