In momentous news for electronica fans, Orbital has been confirmed to headline the Playground Weekender main stage in 2010. The duo hasn’t visited Australia since the early 1990s, so this is sure to be a heady nostalgia trip for many. Phil and Paul Hartnoll only started playing shows again together earlier this year, and the reports from RockNess and The Big Chill were pretty spectacular.

Also new to the Weekender is rising star Washington, brain-scramblers Pivot, The Bees in DJ mode and a Mushroom Jazz set from Mark Farina. There’s more additions promised for 2010 as well.
