Columbus, Ohio superstars twenty one pilots have been announced for a huge festival in Spain.
While twenty one pilots' 2020 calendar so far is pretty empty bar two German shows in June, the Columbus, Ohio duo have just added to that with the news that they'll be performing at next year's Mad Cool Festival.
Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun will be joined by the likes of Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Pixies, alt-J and Tove Lo at the Madrid-based festival, which is now in its fifth year. It's also been announced that this will be twenty one pilots' only Spanish gig of the year, so if you live nearby and love the band, don't miss out.
It's not surprising that twenty one pilots might not be touring as extensively next year, as Tyler announced that his wife Jenna is pregnant onstage back in September – so their iconic live shows might be taking a backseat for a while as he prepares to become a dad for the first time.

Of course, by now twenty one pilots are already seasoned festival headliners, having taken on the UK's legendary Reading & Leeds back in August.
When Kerrang! asked Tyler ahead of the show what fans could expect from their debut headline slot, he enthused:
“It’s tough to get everything in our live show to translate over into a festival set, but there’s something special about festivals, and something special about being outside, too.
“There’s definitely an air of unpredictability, and you don’t really know exactly what to expect. You’d be a fool to assume that everybody is there to watch you – or even know who you are. So there’s a bit of a competitive edge to it, because there’s so many awesome bands on the bill, and so being motivated to rise above that giant pool of talent, and to make your mark, is something that we’re really excited to step up to that challenge.”
