U.K. dance artist Fatboy Slim is among the acts set to play next year?s Snowbombing festival, held April 5?10 in Mayrhofen, Austria.

Other acts confirmed to play the annual music and winter sports festival, which takes place 2,000 meters above sea level in the Austrian Alps, include Editors, De La Soul, Doves, The Enemy, Vitalic and Friendly Fires.

Referring to his planned appearance at last year?s Snowbombing event, which was subsequently cancelled for medical reasons, Cook said in a statement: ?After a little false start, here I come!! I love a new experience and I'm eager for some high altitude raving!?

Dance and DJ acts also confirmed for the event include electro house duo Crookers, Adam Beyer, Scratch Perverts, Stanton Warriors and DJ Yoda. Further line-up details can be found at www.snowbombing.com with further acts to be announced at a later date.

Ticket prices combine entertainment and accommodation and begin at ?279 ($463).
