Gorillaz has announced they are to make their UK comeback at the Demon Dayz festival at Dreamland.

The band are to appear at the theme park on Saturday, June 10, at the one-day extravaganza.

It will take place across three stages with an eclectic line-up curated by band leaders Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, which is still to be announced.

Fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of a much-anticipated album which the pair have been working on for the past two years.

It is not Damon Albarn's first time in Margate.

He performed with Blur as they made their first live appearance after a three-year hiatus, playing a two-hour set at the Winter Gardens in 2012.

Tickets for the festival go on sale on Friday from 9am.

Director of events Rebecca Ellis said: “We’re really excited to be welcoming Demon Dayz and Gorillaz to the newly revamped park.

"As the first event we house on our newly created event site, this is set to be the gig of the summer.

"Visitors to Dreamland can expect the fun to start early on, with special tunes being played at the Roller Disco and some special celebratory food offerings from our food trucks in preparation for the night’s entertainment."
