Outkast will headline this year's Coachella, joined by Muse and Arcade Fire, who also top the bill at the event in California.
In a post on Twitter, the festival revealed the line up for the April event, with the message "Share it like a polaroid picture".
Including Friday's headline slot from the duo, who make their big return after a six-year hiatus, the bill also sees artists such as Queens of the Stone Age, Pharrell, Beck, Lana Del Rey, Motorhead and the Replacements, as well as newcomers HAIM, Lorde and Disclosure.
In November, rumours began that Andre 3000 and Big Boi were in talks for a 2014 tour. In the seven years since Outkast's last album, Idlewild, both of the group's MCs have worked on solo projects. Big Boi has released two critically acclaimed LPs and is producing at least a portion of the next Modest Mouse album. In 2013, Dre and Big Boi finally appeared together on a remix of Frank Ocean's Pink Matter, a track which features André 3000.
Their debut album, Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik, was released in April, 1994. Coachella, taking place at Palm Springs, California, is in its 16th year.
