The rest of the music line-up is yet to be announced.
Neon Lights made its debut in November last year. More than 10,000 fans attended over two nights, which featured a multi-genre line-up of music acts including British shoegaze pioneers Ride, American dance music veteran Nile Rodgers, Irish singersongwriter Damien Rice and Singapore talents such as folk act Hanging Up The Moon.
Apart from music performances, the festival also included other activities such as poetry slams, street artists and dance performances.
The festival is an all-ages event, with tickets for children under 12, accompanied by adults, starting at $25. Early-bird tickets for festivalgoers 12 years and older start at $120 and will go on sale next Tuesday at 9am.
