Founders Paul and Mel Bliss said, "We are so excited to be selling out so far in advance of the festival this year, and for the first time at our new home on Vicarage Farm, bringing back such sweet memories of the much smaller festivals we ran on our own farm which used to sell out like this. The Blissfields family may have grown but it still feels just like that - our festival family getting back together in a field again!"

"To have sold out this year with the difficult economic climate makes us even more elated and gives us real faith in the future and the amazing team that have put the event together with us, and for festivals in general. There've been so many wonderful festivals cancel over the past few years, some big and some small - even we had to cancel in 2008 - making it especially humbling to be back with our biggest capacity, strongest line-up and in a position where we can now put on the most exciting show we ever have done."

Man Like Me, Mystery Jets, and Bastille will headline. Also announced are The D.O.T., Jacob Banks, Friends, Theme Park, The Staves, Sam Smith, Arlissa, Drenge, Thumpers, Blaenavon, Jim Lockey & The Solemn Sun, Dub Pistols, The Silver Beatles, Clean Bandit, Matt Corby, The Other Tribe, Post War Years, Marika Hackman, Public Service Broadcasting, Far Too Loud, Zion Train, Subgiant, Subsource, Beans on Toast, Ally Wolf, Animal, Axis Mundi, Beard of Wolves, Belligerence, Bellyeyesmile, Ben Goddard, Bitr8, Bosch Stacey, Boule, Charlie Ayliffe, Charlie Fox, Cholombian, Chris Ward, Deadproud, Dem Hungry, DJ Grey Jumps, Dr Strangelove's Burlesque Discotheque, and many more.

Music takes place across six stages, and there are still even more acts to be announced over the coming weeks.

As always, Blissfields has a theme each year and encourages attendees to lose themselves in fancy dress of the most absurd festival garb. This year's theme has been announced as 'The Director's Cut' with the festival celebrating all things film in it's 13th year, from the early talkies to VIP Hollywood parties. Expect a weekend full of red carpets, interactive games, popcorn-throwing dance-offs, film screenings, the best soundtracks, visual treats, hidden treasures and all the usual fun that Blissfields has become synonymous with.
