Swedish DJ Eric Prydz, Disclosure, producer Peggy Gou, and DJ Patrick Topping are among the 40 acts set to play the EMERGE music festival in Belfast on August 27th and 28th.
Kettama, Mall Grab, Michael Bibi, Dj Seinfeld, Dusky, Special Request, Fjaak, and Rebekah will also perform at the two-day multi-stage outdoor event at Boucher Road Playing Fields with a capacity for 20,000 attendees per day.
"The electronic music scene is one that has grown steadily in Belfast over the 30 odd years that I've been promoting in the city with my Shine brand, and it's grown exponentially over the last few years," said festival co-promoter and director Alan Simms.
"Belfast is one of the most fertile and dynamic scenes of its kind in the UK or Ireland. We’ve promoted many large scale outdoor electronic events in recent years but always wanted to do a huge multi-stage event of this kind.
"Feedback from our audience suggested that a huge appetite exists for a unique production of this kind in Northern Ireland.
"We’re lucky to have some of the world's biggest names in dance music on our inaugural line-up of EMERGE Music Festival, most of whom we’ve been working with since their very first club shows in the country."
EMERGE Music Festival goes on general sale on Tuesday 29th March at 9.00am from Ticketmaster.ie with day tickets, weekend tickets and weekend ticket deposit plans available.
