Septembers three day (11,12,13) ‘Bestival ’ on the Isle Of White is doing its best to live up to that reputation with an early announcement of headline stars that includes Basement Jaxx , Fatboy Slim , Zero 7 and local boys The Bees.
Bestival is the last festival of the summer and will take place on Robin Hill set in the heart of the Isle of Wight, officially the sunniest place in the UK. A beautiful 88 acre park of natural woodland will play host to this unique festival with event organiser Rob Da Bank unable to hide his delight at securing the current acts:”"We're blown away that we've got these acts headlining - it truly represents the quality and breadth of music that Sunday Best and Bestival are all about. From Basement Jaxx to The Bees, from Zero 7 to Chas & Dave - what more could we ask for?!" Tickets are limited and will cost £85 for the three days or £35 for one day. The full line-up will be announced next week, but more information can be found on the official site below. Post a comment
