Think the planned announcements are usually 11am GMT. Here's hoping for a good announcement. Not that it matters though, some of my favourite years have been when the lineup has been nothing short of trash. Walking round in nothing but shorts and flip flops at 4am off my box is what makes it for me  

 

amen to that brother

Fiberleaks on Twitter suggesting the horrors will be part of this announcement

and Chase and Status. 

Based on previous tweets we can guarantee their predictions are as good as ours.

Chase & Status I would be happy with! Really hoping for Blossoms.

Surely if they are making predictions today, there must be some sort of info?

Yeah don' think they know as much as they liketo let on but did mention a few of the last announcement in hours leading up to it

Probably a Chase & Status DJ set, as BenicassimFans (on Twitter) said a few weeks that they were spinning in Ibiza the first night of Beni, with Gorgon City,  Disciples, and more.....

p.s. Horrors also free that weekend, and not playing any other ESP festival this summer, so this could be a good possibility.  Hope so, as I like both of them

the Horrors were a revelation to me a few years ago at Beni

It's a great live sound - I really like Faris' sound/persona

[Toñobeni]

Twitter account @Fiberleaks say that FIB is going to announce The Horrors and Chase & Status

Where's Mr/Mrs Toad this morning, with their inside information?

[Mrs Toad]

Old mama Toad foresaw an official crrrrrrrOAK, she could feel it in her sprog filled waters.

Remember kids, come straight to the spring and it's adjacent pond, don't believe any fake hype such as those rapscallions fiber leaks or BeNICAssim fAnS

Chase & Status live set, Sat night???

[Mrs Toad]

[Irelandfan]

[EamerRed]

Only a couple of big additions there, I swear there are usually a few more than that?!

Can't see anyone new apart from Chase & Status and The Horrors. Or am I missing someone? 

The days breakdown seem good to me. Thursday a bit of a write-off for my group!

Yes, absolutely.  I didn't expect anything but!!!

[DRH0503]

Was hoping for one or two more decent bands, maybe we'll get some really late announcements like last year?

I'm not expecting much more now.  Numbers are well down on last year, so I don't think we'll have any more than 1 or 2 more well known names, in next months final announcement.

Dreadful line up for a festival. Really disappointed with this year. 

[Jonesy1]

Terrible lineup compared to last year. Will still have a great week anyway.

[gedkelly]

there are bands I want to see every night so i'm a very happy chap , not sure what people want but looks like a lot of fun to be had to me 

just had a quick count and there are 20ish bands I really want to see , that's without the ones I'd like to have a listen too but don't know their music .

I've paid less than £100 for that , bargain
