So Orbital headlining the Main Stage on the Saturday then? Or what they classing as the 'main arena'?

Looks like it from the Official Site

ROCKNESS organisers today confirmed influential electronic timelords ORBITAL are set to reform for a headline mega show at the Highland festival this summer.

Celebrating 20 years of roof-raising anthems and cinematic sounds, the fraternal trailblazing duo Paul and Phil Hartnoll will perform on Saturday 13 June in the main arena in what promises to be a truly celebratory comeback.

Having stumbled across rockness by complete accident in its first year i have yet to miss it.

Last years line up was not that impressive in my humble (ahem) opinion but i still went.

the headliners i am unconvinced about, feel dizzy and biffy belong at download or something, basment jaxx aint big enough and the prodigy are far to aggressive for rockness's friendly atmosphere.

Orbital were good back in the day, when everyone thought electronic music was a phase but i think are pretty passed it now (and so not as good as daft punk(from what i remember(i think, scary year that one))).

everyone is so quick to slag of others peoples likes without actually realising how personal peoples music tastes can be.

I can honestly say, that regardless of who plays at this amazing, picturesque location, that i will be there with feking bells and whistles on and this year, i plan on remembering most of it to :P

Orbital are complete legends and I’m really buzzing that they have got back together, they are a huge influence on the electronic scene in general and have some real belters in their catalogue. Playing live, they are truly amazing, people should be honoured that they are getting another chance to see them live again. It's a real shame some people don't seem to appreciate some of the original dance acts such as Orbital, Underworld and The Prodigy.

    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
