      Fatboy Slim, Rødhåd and Jackmaster have also made the cut for the May bank holiday festival, presented by Electric Frog and Pressure.

      Riverside Festival has released the first wave of names playing in 2016, with Sven Väth, Laurent Garnier and more heading to Glasgow in May.

      Run by promoters Electric Frog and Pressure, the fourth edition of the bank holiday two-dayer has been scheduled for Saturday, May 28th and Sunday the 29th. Like last year, the action will unfold across the grounds of the Riverside Museum, though doors will open earlier at 3 PM. House and techno dominates the first announcement, with headliners Väth, Garnier, Fatboy Slim and Rødhåd leading the charge.

      Ilario Alicante, Dimitri From Paris and Vril (who will play live) have also been booked, joined by local favourites Slam, Gary Beck, Dixon Avenue Basement Jams and Jackmaster, who will make his Riverside debut. More names will be added in the coming months.
