Thanks to several new additions, specifically the under the radar inclusion of Robyn, this year’s edition of Virgin Festival Toronto, set to take place between September 6 and 7 at Toronto Island Park, is starting to shape up quite nicely.

The buzz over Canada’s ultimate summer rock music festival – Virgin Festival Toronto (September 6 & 7) – got even louder today as nine more supersonic acts were added to the already announced stellar line-up featuring headliners Oasis and Foo Fighters. The Kooks, The Fratellis, Against Me!, Shudder to Think and The Airborne Toxic Event will join the bill on Day One. Taking the stage on Day Two will be Silversun Pickups, Danko Jones, Sons and Daughters and Robyn.

Currently announced lineup:

Foo Fighters, Oasis, Robyn, Bloc Party, Paul Weller, The Kooks, Silversun Pickups, The Fratellis, Against Me!, The Weakerthans, The Cribs, MGMT, Stereophonics, Wintersleep, Spiritualized, Constantines, The Pigeon Detectives, The Wombats, Sons and Daughters, Shudder to Think, The Airborne Toxic Event, Danko Jones, The Midway State
