The Prodigy were the first headlining act to be announced for this summer's Spanish music event Festival Internacional de Benicassim.

Also confirmed now are fellow bill toppers Portishead, and  Florence + The Machine, topping a line-up including Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Crystal Fighters, Public Enemy, Clean Bandit, Bastille, Los Planetas, and .

Speaking at this evening’s launch event in Madrid Festival Director, Melvin Benn, said, "FIB. The international festival that started the concept of international festivals enters its 3rd decade and what a wonderful feeling it is for me to be part of it.

The 3rd decade represents the real start for me and, as well as a stellar line up of Main and Second Stage acts we are announcing today -The Prodigy - among them, I'm also very keen to highlight the new areas of the festival we are developing this year, Trenchtown and Bearded Kitten. New and fresh ideas and areas to reset the bar for Spanish festivals in the same way the Moran brothers did in 1995. The FIB 2015 Benicàssim Festival is the future?"
