Looks a bit nice that, won't be going as in Poland for Bjork.

Wow, that will be awesome, would love to see her

It's been sooooo long since they last announced any acts. Previous years have been relatively consistent but this isn't...I don't like to wait.

This time last year we had 3 main announcements, plus the full line up from beats and swing.

I suppose once it starts it be one after another.

Think we all want that .Fingers crossed

Finding it a bit weird they keep posting about past acts, Lewis Capaldi and now Craig Charles, when normally they are promoting the acts set to play. Both times it made me initially think its a mini announcement ....then I get disappointed. LOL

The same happens to me....every time I get a notification from Victorious I get a little excited then find out it's from a previous year. Promote/announce this years bands!

Interesting

 

[DomDom1984]

Maybe didn't like the clash. Either way, Ellie Goulding instead of Mumfords suits me right down to the ground.

[sisco]

Raye added as a sub

[kelstar]

Wasnt expecting too much, but a few interesting ones in that lot.

[Bubblepopelectric]

Shame they announced Raye so late in the day as we have now decided to do something else already. Would have just bought Friday tickets but with no parking it's a complete ballache to contend with trying to get back to the car so late and we don't exactly live close by.

Is it too optimistic to be hoping for another lineup announcement on top of this? 😬

[s30foster]

With Raye being the sub on the Friday who's updating the Clashfinder - that was already a rather busy day for me.

I feel it likely is, was expecting a bit more than. It is likely telling by the random output with no warning that they did not have a great deal. I fancied the Saturday for a day ticket although probably swaying towards Sunday more so if anything.

I reckon that’s probably your lot for the main stages.  20 acts last year across the 2 main stages and already have more than that.  A couple will be Beats & Swing and Acoustic of course too

Last year they announced a couple of extras for the acoustic stage, and they were really busy, so we may have a few names added. But I think thats the main announcements are over.

Beats and Swing are usually next to release there full line up xx

Is it just me who cannot see Bonnie Kemplay on the poster? Do you think they just missed her off.

I saw her earlier in the year supporting The 1975. I would be up for seeing her again in an early slot. I guess  a decent chance they might put her on the accoustic stage.

Is it confirmed anywhere that Ben Howard and Mumford & Sons won’t clash? That Ellie Goulding is now definitely headlining the Castle Stage? That’s a deal breaker for me.

Generally on the poster the person listed under the header is the castle headliner.  So seems it was meant to be Ben Howard but now been changed to Ellie Goulding.

Surprisingly more of a Pop/Dance/Electronic/Reggae vibe, this year which is surprising, normally you get a few bits, but this year has lots.

Leeroy for all those after Prodigy, not exactly the full line up, but something x

Definitely.  We came to this festival initially based on the indie/90s heavy line up and been hooked ever since.  But it’s a fair old trek and we abandon the sprogs for 4 nights 🤣

This will be our last year of booking anything prior to a major lineup announcement anyway, time to try somewhere new.

Anyone know when they usually release the stage split? The acoustic and seaside (I think) usually have a bit of something I like too.

Honestly was convinced the cribs would be announced this time round!
