Fatboy Slim, Groove Armada and Kelis are heading up the bill for Bestival‘s planned restart in 2021.

Gazumped this year along with every other major UK festival, Bestival organisers are now looking to the future and have pencilled in July 29th-August 1st for its return to Lulworth Castle in Dorset, and also have the likes of Friendly Fires, Tim Burgess and Sophie Ellis Bextor on its line-up. “Take two indeed!,” co-curators Josie and Rob da Bank have said.




“Take one was looking pretty good through the lens but take two is taking things to a whole new level with some amazing new additions to our cast. Step up very special guest Kelis making a huge comeback at the moment, the best maître d’ in the world Fred Sirieix helping us curate our food offerings, add in Charlatans frontman Tim Burgess live, a proper standalone comedy tent, a new clubby space for parents and teens and loads more fresh ideas.”
