As the live action falls into place perfectly, there's plenty to look forward to when it comes to bass bin pressure. Rob da Bank will, of course, be manning the platters for one of his legendarily multifarious musical adventures and Radio 1's very own doyen of the dance, Annie Mac, will be on hand with her renowned Annie Mac Presents promising to push the speakers to their limits.
Plus there will be version excursions from David Rodigan, lush techno from Ewan Pearson, deepness from Dixon, old skool moves from Greg Wilson, slick beats from Nathan Fake, cutting edge vibes from Huw Stephens, deadly Dubstep from Mary-Anne Hobbs, hip-hop odysseys from Jaguar Skills and heavy riddims from Joy Orbison. Plus there's gonna be plenty of heads-down boogying action with Horsemeat Disco, DJ Derek, Greg's Greats, SBTRKT, Ramadanman, Seth Troxler, Untold, The Broken Hearts and Back To The Phuture.
One of the undisputed highlights of last year's shindig was The Afterburner stage so we're pleased as punch to announce that it's back, bigger and better for 2010. Doubling in size and now with a full live stage, the Afterburner's incandescent brilliance is sure to be suitably scintillating. Other incredible attractions will include The Castle In The Sky Bonfire Extravaganza and the brand new Wishing Tree field that will feature the most amazing sculpture garden. The Village will also be transformed in to Tomorrow's World envisaging an inspired, sustainable and green and fun future including a solar powered Bandstand and free solar mobile phone charging and a few regular treats including the Pub, WI Tent and Farmers Market.
With masses of Bestival magic sprinkled generously across the entire site there'll be plenty of madcap laughs to be had plus there'll be loads of old favourites to rediscover, luxurious alternative camping, an amazing array of delicious foods to feast on and, of course, lots of tea and cake on offer. And remember, this is just the beginning; we've got so much bewilderingly brilliant stuff still to announce that we might have to have a little lie down….
