Phoebe Bridgers, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, Poppy Ajudha, and more to play The Great Escape

Hatchie, Mavi Phoenix, Bossy Love, Suzi Wu, Børns, Mavi Phoenix, Lo Moon, and lots more are confirmed to play the festival, joining already-revealed names such as Pale Waves and Grace Carter.

New partners for this year's event include Download Festival, with plenty of rock, punk, and metal represented at The Mother Ship, and Gilles Peterson's Future Bubblers, the discovery and developement wing of his Brownswood Music endeavour.

"Future Bubblers is about identifying and developing some of the most exciting, leftfield, genre-blurring music from across the country," says Peterson. "We’ve been working with these artists over the past two years and this opportunity to work with a festival as established as The Great Escape, to be in the mix of the rest of the UK industry, and to show the world what they’re made of, is so timely for these Bubblers. This will be an important spring board for all the future great things to come for them."

The Line Of Best Fit will return to the festival for an eighth consecutive year with full details on our stage line-up to follow over the next few weeks. (Be excited).
