“Pound for pound, this is probably our most powerful line up in our 8-year history,” said James Moody, co-owner of FFF, in a press release. “We are staying true to our roots, while still pushing the limit on new ideas, discoveries and experiences for our fans.”

Weekend 3-day passes go on sale Wednesday morning. More information on tickets, the full lineup and stages can be found on the Fun Fun Fun Fest website. The Festival says single-day passes, student discounts and set times are coming in August.

The City of Austin will close Auditorium Shoresafter this year's Fun Fun Fun Fest to embark on a multimillion-dollar, C3 Presents-sponsored renovation, which is slated to take at least a year to complete; meaning Fun Fun Fun Fest will have to find a new home in 2014.
