Bestival goers have taken to Twitter to praise this year's line-up, following today's announcement of a number of brand new artists taking to the Isle Of Wight stage in September of this year.
Following last week's announcement that US duo Outkast would take top billing at Bestival 2014, it has now been announced that Beck and Foals will also be topping the bill, with Disclosure, Major Lazer, London Grammar. Chvrches, Sam Smith and Clean Bandit also confirmed.
Disclosure will be taking to the main stage before headliner Outkast on Friday, with Major Lazer also appearing on the main stage on Sunday evening.
Response to the announcement has been overwhelmingly positive online, with fans tweeting of their excitement about the new additions - some eight months before the festival takes place. See some of the most enthusiastic responses below:
Bestival line up is looking a bit seductive to say the least #bestival

Festival curator and DJ Rob da Bank said: "Ahoy there shipmates and welcome to my desert island! Yes folks, HMS Bestival has set sail once more and we have finally landed back on the Isle of Wight for our 11th instalment - a Desert Island Disco. Foals were voted best live act of last year and I'm delighted they'll be headlining the Saturday night – there’s no better indie guitar band in the UK right now.
"Also donning a grass skirt and mirrorball is a total icon of popular music and one of my favourite songwriters, Beck, plus disco darlings Disclosure, Diplo and his Major Lazer crew and all the hottest new bands from London Grammar to Clean Bandit. So get out of your deckchair and get ready to disco, my friends!"
Bestival takes place at Robin Hill County Park on the Isle Of Wight from 4 - 7 September, 2014. For more information visit Gigwise gig tickets.
