Jorja Smith, MIA and London Grammar to headline Bestival 2018 as line up is announced.

Jorja Smith and London Grammar are both UK exclusive performances, and there’s also set to be a Friday night headliner announced soon.

The line up also features Grace Jones, Plan B, Chaka Kahn, First Aid Kit, and Django Django. Mabel will also feature, as will Faithless and So Solid Crew.

This year’s theme is ‘circus’ which will be spread across the 20 stages and eight arenas, taking place for the second year at the Lulworth Estate, Dorset.

Rob da Bank said: ‘Here come the girls…and a few boys too! Yes, it’s Bestival 2018 and we’re here with the first wave of our all-singing all-dancing line-up. With UK festival exclusive headliners London Grammar and Jorja Smith to legends in the game Chaka Khan, Jimmy Cliff and Grace Jones, and always representing the new blood from Mura Masa and IAMDDB to Mabel and Idles, we’re covering all bases.

‘As any Bestival veteran knows we don’t just do music, so come and check our Hot Yoga, Dubstep Dodgem rides, wood-fired hot tubs, AmbientLand craft tent, East 17’s Christmas Party!, and loads of circus-based trickery, including a Human Cannonball, high wire fire walking and a pretty buff strongman popping up on the Main Stage.’

London Grammar will feature on the Saturday night with Jorja Smith taking over the Big Top on Thursday. MIA will close the show on Sunday with the spectacular fireworks display.

It’s looking pretty damn good!
