Bestival sells out again

Stevie Wonder, who is headlining this year's Bestival on the Isle of Wight.

BESTIVAL has sold out for the eighth year in a row.

Organisers of the Isle of Wight event announced today (Wednesday) that the full allocation of camping tickets had once again sold out.

Around 50,000 music fans are expected to descend on the site, at Robin Hill, for four days of music and mayhem including headline sets from Stevie Wonder, New Order and Florence + The Machine.

There is just a week to go to the event and curator Rob da Bank said: "A funny old year for festivals but we got there!

"We are sold out for the eighth year running, which is no mean feat and thanks to everyone who’s bought a ticket.

"So now it’s time to get wild, dress up, let your hair down, prepare to party like it’s, well, 2012 and hopefully witness things that no one else on earth has ever seen! See you on the grass."

Organisers said a few tickets remained for the premium camping area The Wild Copse available from the Bestival website.
