The four-man band from Las Vegas who have sold over 12 million albums to date, will perform for the first time at the festival, headlining the final Sunday night.

Benicàssim is backed by Vince Power (the founder of the Mean Fiddler and the man behind The Hop Farm Festival) who stated, "I'm very pleased to have the The Killers headline this year, not only is it their 1st time with us, but they are joining an amazing bill for our 15th Anniversary. This year's festival is shaping up to be the best in Europe."

Festival Internacional de Benicassim, FIB Heineken, which is held near Valencia, Spain will be celebrating their 15th anniversary from Thursday 16th until Sunday 19th July, and have already announced Oasis who headline Thursday, Kings of Leon who headline Friday, Franz Ferdinand who headline Saturday, and Paul Weller for this year's bill.

Benicassim has something to offer across the whole musical spectrum, as indie and rock bands rub shoulders with DJs and more experimental music projects. As well as this diverse array of musical performers, the festival boasts a quality bill of non-musical entertainment, including dance, art, theatre, fashion, silent disco and short films.

The festival has already sold out it's early bird ticket allocation. Tickets are on sale on now. A four-day pass cost £140 until January 15th, and can be bought here.
