Popular Scottish band Franz Ferdinand will open the 10th INmusic festival in Zagreb in June…

The Glaswegians, who been nominated for several Grammy and BRIT music Awards since bursting on the scene in the mid 2000’s, were announced as the latest headline act in the jubilee edition of Croatia’s largest open-air festival last night. The band, who have been guests before at the Zagreb festival, will perform with American band Sparks, whom they are collaborating with.

Kate Tempest, Paolo Nutini, Placebo, Eagles of Death Metal, We Are Shining, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, La Roux, and Frank Turner have already been confirmed for this year’s festival.

INmusic festival, which was nominated recently for a European Festival Award, will be held from 22 – 24 June 2015 on the Island of Youth at Zagreb’s Lake Jarun, while the even bigger and better festival camp site will be located on two adjoining islands at lake Jarun – Tresnjevka Isle and the Univerzijada Isle. More acts will be named over the course of the next few months in the lead up to the jubilee festival. (photo / wikimedia)
