Is Damian more or less likely following the Bestival announcement?

less I'd have thought, but doing both isn't impossible. He's a minor-ish name on the Bestival bill, but he'd be a big-deal for Boomtown.

Arcadia back at Boomtown in 2017?
Have just seen this comment on their Facebook page.

Kinda hope not, Banghai Palace was far more impressive, and could be versatile with the whole revolution storyline coming along.

Though re-reading the thread there, it could be them refering going back to Bangkok next year as Boomtown is now 'this year'

Any idea why the "New for 2016 - revealed 1st Feb" stage hasn't appeared? And what time are we expecting today's promised news?

Absolutely agree

[jimmyt]

Anyone else think Leftfield in the Town Centre seems an odd choice of stage? Maybe the website isn't quite right because surely the Bang Hai Palace was made for them!

wow!
it's as though a certain brand of lager did line-ups

Yup! But it's as if that brand of lager was also really, really tasty!

This is their best line up yet. I have a feeling this year is going to be pretty special for me

Brilliant line up! Didn't go last year after doing three consecutive years before that. Looking forward to returning this year!

[atomised]
