The Cure have been revealed as the opening night headliner for NOS Alive 2019 in Portugal.
The British legends have had a few months of downtime following their two London shows over summer, and will open Lisbon's NOS Alive next year.
The Cure are the only name to be revealed from next year's line-up, but you can expect many more names to be revealed very soon.
Last year's NOS Alive saw performances from the likes of Perfume Genius, Nine Inch Nails, The National, Friendly Fires, Sampha, Khalid, and a brilliant bunch of homegrown talent.
NOS Alive 2019 takes place 11-13 July in Lisbon, Portugal. Weekend tickets are on sale now from just €149. Revisit our 50 photos from NOS Alive 2018.
