February 26, 2010
Roxy Music, Mumford & Sons and The Temper Trap For BestivalRoxy Music, Mumford & Sons and The Temper Trap are amongst a flurry of new acts confirmed for Bestival this September.

Also joining the bill are Tricky, Chic ft. Nile Rogers, Everything Everything, Memory Tapes, Example, Ou Est Le Swimming Pool, Alex Metric, Sub Focus and the mighty Gaggle.

They all join an already impressive bill that boasts the likes of LCD Soundsystem, Rolf Harris, Dizzee Rascal, The Flaming Lips, Hot Chip, Fever Ray and The xx.

In other Bestival news, the festival has just announced its theme for 2010 – Fantasy. Slightly vague, it means you can dress up in pretty much anything.

Bestival takes place at Robin Hill Country Park from September 9-12.
