Kings Of Leon, The Killers and Snow Patrol will headline this year's Oxegen festival.

It will be the second year in a row the Kings have played the top slot at the event.

Organisers say Kings Of Leon were chosen to headline again as they received massive support from fans in a poll conducted on Oxegen.ie. Meanwhile, Hotpress.com revealed the other two headliners.

The festival slot will be Kings Of Leon's only appearance in Ireland in 2009.

Oxegen is set to return to Punchestown Racecourse, Naas, County Kildare from July 10-12.

someone just climbed into my brain, saw my ideal line up (minus the strokes) and then made it the line up. GOOD TIME TO ROLL ON!

Kings are a different class live though compared to most new(ish) bands!
