Spain's Mad Cool festival has added some impressive names to its lineup for 2018, with Depeche Mode, MGMT, and Massive Attack all confirmed.

Queens Of The Stone Age, Future Islands, Fleet Foxes, Real Estate, Angel Stanich, Ofenbach, and Jack Johnson are also confirmed to play the third edition of the festival.

Next year's festivities will be moving from Caja Magica to a new 'Mad Cool Space' in northern Madrid. The 80,000 capacity Mad Cool will now take palce in Valdebebas - IFEMA, with the Mad Cool Gallery, Mad Cool Design Market, and a "renovated restaurant zone" all also on the cards.

We went to Mad Cool over the summer and had a fantastic time - we found that it's one of the continent's leading festivals, and is more than capable of giving Barcelona institution Primavera a run for its money.

Mad Cool 2018 will take place 12-14 July in Madrid, Spain. Find out more.
