Arcade Fire have announced details of their biggest headline gig in the UK to date.

The Canadian rockers will play London's Hyde Park on Thursday 30 June.

London folk rock band Mumford & Sons will appear as the main support act, whilst Beirut and The Vaccines will also play on the bill.

Arcade Fire most recently completed a UK arena tour in December 2010 with tickets for this concert going on general sale on Friday 28 January.

Last summer the band, led by husband and wife duo Win Butler and R茅gine Chassagne, topped the bill at the Reading and Leeds festivals.
