London's Citadel Festival has added a mammoth new wave of acts for its 2017 event, with Wild Beasts, Laura Marling, and Sylvan Esso heading up the list.
Bonobo, Maggie Rogers, Nadine Shah, Ardyn, Margaret Glaspy, Twin Peaks, RY X, Michael Kiwanuka, and loads more are also set to perform at the Foals-headlined bash this summer.
As well as the music there'll be lots of other exciting activities, from pop-up science workshops to '80s aerobics to sports games. There's lots for the whole family too, with a kid's area and all-ages rave planned.
Last year's stunning one-dayer, only the second edition in total, saw performances from Sigur Rós, Caribou, and many more.
Citadel 2017 takes place 16 July at London's Victoria Park. Tickets are on sale now.
