Bestival Sells Out!

added 16 July 2009 at 14.31

If you haven't got a ticket, you've missed your chance for the big fancy dress festival of the summer...

With just under 2 months to go until this year's Bestival...   it's now completely sold out. The annual combination of music, comedy, DJs and eccentric fancy dress takes place in Robin Hill Country Park on the Isle of Wight between September 11 to 13, with Massive Attack, Kraftwerk and Elbow headlining.

Organiser Rob Da Bank said, "I’m quite speechless selling out 8 weeks before Bestival actually fires off into Space. Its testament to our amazing and very loyal crowd that we've achieved this in a tricky old year for festies, so roll on September and thanks for selling us out."

Also playing will be MGMT, Fleet Foxes, Seasick Steve, Klaxons, Lily Allen, Soulwax, La Roux and Bat For Lashes. But fear not, if you've not snapped up a ticket - stay tuned to www.xfm.co.uk for something special...
