Bilboa BBK Live festival have announced that Kings Of Leon will be a headline act for the 2013 festival.
The news sees the band join Depeche Mode and Greenday as headliners of the eighth edition of the Spanish festival, set for July next year.
This year's festival saw Bilboa BBK hit record-breaking attendance figures with Radiohead and The Cure drawing massive crowds, and the edition of a third stage proving popular.
The festival, located on top of a hill outside Bilboa - surrounded by mountains and with spectatcular views of the city - has previously seen the likes of Coldplay, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Janes Addiction grace its stages.
Also on the bill for the 2013 event are Editors and Two Door Cinema Club, with more acts still to be confirmed.
Kings of Leon are currently working on their sixth studio album, which is set for release in 2013.
Their last album, Come Around Sundown, provided the group with their third UK number one album in a row, with both Only By The Night and Because Of The Times having topped the charts before it.
