The Flaming Lips — with a 20th-anniversary performance of their album “The Soft Bulletin” — and Flying Lotus have been announced as major lineup additions for the eight annual Desert Daze festival.

FlyLo, whose new album “Flamagra” comes out May 24, will be giving one of his immersive 3D performances at the festival, Oct. 10-13, which returns for a second year to Moreno Beach at Lake Perris.

* Parquet Courts have been tabbed as another addition to Desert Daze.

They join Stereolab and Animal Collective as the only acts that have been announced for Desert Daze thus far.

My Bloody Valentine, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard and Tame Impala headlined last year’s Desert Daze, which was marred on the first night by a freak thunderstorm.

The full 2019 is still to be revealed.

Weekend passes ($259 for general admission) go on sale at 10 a.m. Thursday, along with VIP packages, camping and add-ons (including car camping passes, RV camping passes and Stout Tent rentals).
