The 2-day line up for the Toronto stop of the Virgin Music Festival was announced yesterday. The festival takes place at the Toronto Island Park September 8th and 9th.

But this just ain't a concert. The festival plans to raise money for a great cause. Virgin Unite works on a range of programs across the globe with a special focus on youth-related issues and HIV.

As well, Carbon Neutral, part of the David Suzuki Foundation, will be suppling the festival with on-site recycling, biodegradable food and bevy containers, using "green" power when possible, and planting trees.

So what does your $125 ticket get you? The answers are revealed after the jump.
