Bestival in Isle of Wight, UK has announced a massive round one lineup. The festival will be headlined by The Chemical Brothers and Underworld, and feature a huge roster of heavy-hitters such as Tame Impala, Duran Duran, The Jacksons (yes, those Jacksons), Jungle, Flying Lotus and many more.
The festival also announced that it will “return to its roots” with a “Summer of Love” theme. Festival organizers released the following statement:
“We’re taking it right back to our roots for the 12th annual Bestival. It’s also the 20th birthday of the club where it all started – Sunday Best, and that club and our beloved Bestival were founded on some pretty simple aims – listen to amazing music, make new friends, have fun, and maybe stay up all night. Two decades later we’re rigidly sticking to those principles, and this edition of Bestival, with its Summer of Love theme, is all about one huge musical, well, orgy… So, returning friends the Chemical Brothers rave alongside iconic popstars Duran Duran and The Jacksons, and some of my favourite modern musical mavericks – Tame Impala, Flying Lotus and Jungle – jump in bed together… and this is just the start of the party… Watch this space and feel the love!”
