New festival All Points East, which is set to take place at London's Victoria Park next year, have just announced that The xx (pictured) and The National are two of the headliners set to perform at their first event.

The xx will take to the stage on the 26th May, with support from Popcaan and Lykki Li, while The National head up on the 2nd June and will be joined by The War On Drugs, Future Islands, Warpaint and The Districts with other still to be confirmed.
