Final additions to Bestival 2013

Bestival’s 10th Birthday Spectacular is drawing ever closer. To mark a decade of dancing celebrations will be held across 20 stages in 10 fields consisting of non-stop parties and 24 hour escapism.

Joining the super-colossal birthday line-up September 5th-8th will be Digital Soundboy featuring the mercurial talents of Jungle pioneer Shy FX, plus the dancefloor spanking abilities of B.Traits, genre-swerving bass soldier Breakage, and sets from Dismantle, Stamina, LX One and Juma.

Red Bull Music Academy is set to return to Bestival this September with its strongest line-up yet, featuring the likes of Trojan Sound System, Earl Gateshead, Chucky Bantan and Jah Buck.

A litany of new acts will be helping Bestival 2013 celebrate hitting double figures, including super-hotly tipped MC, Scrufizzer, Tayo 3000, funky beats guru Soul Of Man and breakbeat champion Ed Solo. The festival will also see sets from Phil Mison, Pylo, party geniuses Sombrero Sound System, Cholombian, Black Kat Boppers, Gemma Cairney and Matthew Hawtin. Plus there will be live appearances from Run Tingz, Dr Meaker, Zac Smith and Garrett Kato who’ll be playing the Bandstand on Sunday night.

The surreal surrounds of Continental Drifts’ legendary Club Dada will play host to OQuadro, Max Pashm, Tia Brazda, Wonka Vision, Gypsy Fever, Dr Meaker and Dr Syntax who will all be swinging, dinging and exploding out of the spiegeltent across the weekend.

Pig’s Big Ballroom is back once again this year to provide a hip-swinging array of acts inspired by music from the time before your mother was born. This year’s line-up includes the acclaimed Duke Special and live performances from Abioye and Randall, Lewis Mockler, The Tootsie Rollers, Keltrix, Ethan Ash, CC Smugglers, The Vagaband and The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing.
