Lewis Capaldi, Foals and Snow Patrol will headline the Latitude Festival in Suffolk this summer.

Foals said, “We're honoured & thrilled to be headlining Latitude this year. It's especially significant to us as our first ever festival headline set was at Latitude almost ten years ago and we remember the rush of that show like it's today; it felt like being handed the controls to a jumbo jet at 35k feet...Latitude helped us and many other great UK bands realise their potential.

"We couldn't be happier to come back on the Saturday night to remind everyone & ourselves how powerful & euphoric live music can be.”

Snow Patrol said, “We are so delighted to be back playing Latitude once again. We headlined the very first one in 2006 and we’re so honoured to be asked to headline once again. It's one of the best festivals in the UK and we can’t wait. Lots of love from Snow Patrol”

Organisers said it couldn't be happier to announce the first line-up of the year.

Russell Howard will headline the Comedy Arena, with Rosie Jones and the Two Shot Podcast also on the bill.

Russell Howard said, “Can’t wait to headline Latitude. Such a brilliant festival and always has an excellent range of music and comedy.”

The festival will take place at Henham Park from the 21st to 24th July.
