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.

[Ben Holland]

How on earth are New Order a let down? Great booking in my opinion.

Im off to Sziget this year instead of Benni for a change.....but I'm now starting to think I may have made a mistake. Stone Roses, New Order and Noel.....Viva Manchester!

[davywalsh7]

But if they were headlining then that would mean that Benicassim are unlikely to get any better acts than them. In that case, I really hope that none today's announcements are headlining because I would want to see someone like Radiohead, Red Hot Chili Peppers or Muse instead of New Order

[rug568]

On the facebook page there is nothing about them headlining. I can remember with Florence and the Stone Roses they mentioned it explicitly.

[philly_eds]

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

[Boothy380]

Ah yes, you make an excellent point.

[philly_eds]

Also... look where The Streets (Thurs headliner, same as Florence this year) are on this poster, right at bottom!

So does anyone know if New Order are headlining? or is Noel Gallagher? thought they could of announced another headliner, apart from Stone Roses and Florence if not?

NG is defo NOT a headliner. We were also told that New Order aren't.

Flo is.

I bought my early bird ticket the day i got back from benni last year cos I had such an amazing time, but ive got to say im not really impressed witht the line up so far. I love florence, but she doesnt compare as a headliner like the strokes or arctic monkeys. Noel will be good if plays some oasis songs but i dont think i canreally get going to the high flying birds stuff. Its a diverse line-up but they definately need some more dance acts

Id like to see mumford with their new album, Swedish house mafia, skrillex

[saints15]

Personally I was really happy with New Order playing, expecting that they would headline so I'm even happier now. In terms of the actual headliners, I think it will be Blur and The Killers and maybe Beni need to wait for those bands to announce other dates first

[saints15]

[Sarge009]

Yes but she will probably have the same spot as The Streets did

[jonnyhallam]

Yep, Florence has confirmed that she's playing Thursday night.
