Gogol Bordello to headline Beautiful Days

United Kingdom | | 01 May 2007

Gogol Bordello have been confirmed as Saturday night headliners for Beautiful Days, which takes place at Escott Park, Devon, from 17-19 August.

Having headlined Bestival last year, the self-proclaimed 'gypsy punks' will top Saturday night's bill at Beautiful Days before playing the Carling Weekend: Reading and Leeds Festivals the following weekend.

With only a few acts previously confirmed, Beautiful Days has moved into the premier league of festival popularity by selling out before announcing its full set of headliners. Tickets are no longer available.

Gogol Bordello will join the Sunday night headliners The Levellers, with Friday's bill topper to be announced on 1 August.

More acts have been announced today, including Bill Bailey, McDermotts Two Hours, Electric Soft Parade, Hey Negrita, Boney M, Passenger, Hybrid and The Fabulous Good Time Party Boys.

They join previously announced acts such as Afro Celt Sound System, Babyhead, Back to the Planet, Dreadzone, Easy Star All Stars, Howard Marks, Mr Hudson & the Library, The Rumble Strips, Vincent Vincent and the Villians and Willy Mason.
