Latitude Festival will return this summer.
After 2020's edition was postponed due to the coronavirus, organisers have shared the latest line up details for the event's return in July.
Supergrass (pictured), Sons Of Kemet and Villagers are among the latest acts announced for the bill, which will be headlined by Wolf Alice, The Chemical Brothers, Bastille, and Bombay Bicycle Club. Festival Director Melvin Benn said:
“It’s been a long week after the Prime Minister’s announcement on Monday and while I was disappointed in the immediate aftermath of the statement, on reflection, I think it actually gives much more certainty of Latitude being able to happen than if he had loosened things on Monday because the country will have strangled the variant’s ability to spread to a greater degree through increased vaccination than if we had opened fully this coming Monday.
So, for much of the week I have been in conversation with the Government on Latitude in particular and I’m very confident after those talks that Latitude will be able to go ahead. There will be more detail on the specifics next week but with this in mind, we are thrilled to announce these fantastic artists today.
More details will follow but we’ll 100% keep you updated every step of the way. We’re very excited – it’s really happening!”
