Coachella has set the Internet ablaze by unveiling its 2016 line-up a few days before most had anticipated.

Alongside throwback headliners Guns N' Roses and LCD Soundsystem, Calvin Harris has been awarded the final headlining slot. Though his name so high up on the bill might come as a surprise against talents like Ice Cube and Disclosure, Calvin's last performance at Coachella drew a record-breaking crowd, earning him a leading spot this year.

The Indio festival has delivered a diverse line-up that hits across the entire electronic spectrum. From mainstream heavy hitters like Jack Ü, Major Lazer and Zedd to the indie crossover acts like Miike Snow and M83, Coachella has once again given a heavy nod to dance music. The underground has a fair representation as well with Marco Carola, Black Coffee, Maceo Plex, Adam Beyer & Ida Engberg and more.

Find the full line-up below.
