Now in it’s second year, Bestival’s younger sibling Common People becomes a two-site festival for the first time in 2016, and we’ve got two pairs of tickets to give away.
On May Bank Holiday (28th & 29th May) Southampton Common and South Park, Oxford will become the sort of bohemian, multi-cultural, party-central, hip-happening collection of legends, underground acts, DJs and entertainers that could only come from the mind of Rob Da Bank and his Sunday Best team.
With headline performances from Duran Duran, Primal Scream and this year’s comeback king Craig David, as well as slots from icons across the board, Public Enemy, Chas & Dave, The Sugarhill Gang and Soul II Soul, it’s clear that like everything else he touches, Rob Da Bank’s newest festival is only going from strength to strength.
New music is covered with Palma Violets, Pretty Vicious and Lonely The Brave, while Katy B and Lady Leshurr are doing it for the girls on the main stage, The Common. The Big Top is being overtaken by Hospitality and Kurupt FM, and in between these dance acts there’s the choice to see West End Kids bring a little London theatre magic to the festival stage, or bust your own moves to workout legend Mr Motivator.
Add to that street food stalls, cocktail buses and much, much more and you have the ideal introduction to festival season 2016, and just enough to keep you going until The Cure, Major Lazer and Hot Chip head to Bestival in September. Tickets are available here, but be quick, it’s just a few weeks away. And as this isn’t a camping festival, check out the information on travel here.
For a chance to win two tickets to a site of your choice fill in the form and answer the simple question below. The competition closes on Friday 29th April.
