Bestival has revealed that it will move from its Isle of Wight site in 2017, with organisers taking the festival to the Lulworth Estate in Dorset for the event which runs from Thursday 7th to Sunday 10th September.

Bestival has been hosted at the Robin Hill country park on the Isle of Wight since 2004. The festival already hosts its sister event, Camp Bestival, at the Dorset location.

Revealing the information on Facebook, Bestival curator Rob da Bank, said, “Hot off the press – yes Bestival is moving! We can confirm we have submitted a licence application for a new site at the Lulworth Estate in Dorset and we’re super excited about our shiny new Bestival adventure. We have an incredible lineup, headliners confirmed and ridiculous new stages and installations coming your way in 2017.”
