Following a successful first year, Bestival is back for more at Robin Hill Country Park on the Isle of Wight on the 9th, 10th, 11th September 2005.

There'll be 100s of live acts and DJS over three days as well as other things to keep you entertained, and as well as the major names, it will also have the Bollywood Cocktail Bar, the 24 Hour Village, and a new acoustic arena.

Many acts have been announced and include Röyksopp, Super Furry Animals, Soulwax, 2 Many DJs, The Magic Numbers, Dreadzone, British Sea Power, Tom Findlay (Groove Armada), Lee Scratch Perry, Tom Vek, Bugz in the Attic and many more - see here for the details.

From 6:30pm on the Saturday there's plans to try and set a world record for the biggest fancy dress party. Hosted by the Weird West Big Top and the Bollywood Bar, the theme is loosely Cowboys and Indians – but hey you could come as a Village People Cowboy, a fully fledged Bombay belly dancer or Hiawatha – there are no rules.

Weekend tickets are now sold out. Day tickets - which DO NOT include camping - are available to buy on the gate.
