Latitude have revealed that the line-up for the 2015 festival will be announced on 3 March, along with a trailer of the event.

A short video featuring John Cooper Clarke approved performance poet Luke Wright has been uploaded to the site, featuring purple sheep, woodland stages, fresh pizza and a tempting offer of a "binge of art and death of sleep". He promises an event "as wide and deep as culture goes" over a "magic weekend."

Melvin Benn, the founder and organiser of Latitude, has revealed that all three headliners have been booked for next year's festival, including "someone extra special who we've been trying to book for years."

The festival will celebrate its 10th birthday next year, and takes place between Thursday 16 and Sunday 19 July in Henham Park Estate, Suffolk.

"I’m really excited that Latitude is returning for the 10th Edition next July and I’m pleased to say all three headliners are already secured," said Benn. "We’ve got one act in particular who is someone extra special who we’ve been trying to book for years."

He continued: "Another of our headliners is someone who has risen through the ranks of the festival and will be topping the bill for the very first time. The third is someone who has headlined Latitude before, and loved the experience so much that they wanted to come back for the Birthday Edition!"

Benn also revealed that ten acts from Latitude 2006 will be returning to the festival for special homecoming shows. Some of the acts who played the first ever Latitude include Mogwai, Paolo Nutini, Patti Smith and Snow Patrol.

Tickets for Latitude 2015 are now on sale, with the option to spread the cost of a festival ticket over several months. For tickets and more information click here.
