The Libertines have been announced as the Ibiza Rocks 10th anniversary headliners with a plethora of other brilliant acts also confirmed for the summer-long Spanish bash, Gigwise reports.
This summer marks a big year for the Rocks brand, who will be celebrating a decade at their San Antonio hotel. To celebrate, Carl Barat, Pete Doherty and co will be performing at the hotel on 22 of July – heading up a stellar line up for talent for the summer that includes Clean Bandit, Fatboy Slim, Jungle, Years & Years, The Courteeners, Sigma (live) and Shura.
Ibiza Rocks founder Andy McKay said: “The ultimate defining moment of Rocks was when we discovered that our future lay outdoors and that was the night Babyshambles played Bar M. It was the moment we found our time slot before midnight and the moment we discovered the energy created by a live band playing under the stars in Ibiza. It all clicked.
"It was that realisation that changing the soundtrack changed absolutely everything. By doing something that radical we skewed the whole direction of the future of Ibiza. To be celebrating 10 years on with a headline show from The Libertines, a truly iconic rock band reunited, is going to be one hell of a seminal moment for Ibiza Rocks. Roll on the next 10 years.”
