Bastille have been announced as the second headliners for this year's Boardmasters Festival, alongside previously announced Rudimental.

Bastille were scheduled to play the surf and music festival last year, but it was cancelled before they could perform due to extreme winds caused by Hurricane Bertha.

Speaking about their second chance to perform at Watergate Bay, Cornwall, Dan Smith said, "We're all incredibly excited to be coming back to Boardmasters for, barring any more hurricanes, an amazing night in the West Country."

He added: "Growing up in the South West, Boardmasters was a festival I always wanted to play so when it was cancelled last year I was devastated. Hopefully coming back this year will help make up for it and we'll be able to play some material from our new album as well. We can't wait to see you all in August."

Bastille and Rudimental are the only two acts to be announced so far for Boardmasters, which takes place between 5 and 9 August 2015. For tickets and more info, click here.
