Outkast will headline this year's Bestival, making one of only two UK Festival appearances.

Last year's theme was HMS Bestival, this year's theme follows a narrative with Bestival having sailed into uncharted waters, picking up rebels, misfits, artists and prophets, before beaching upon the warm sands of a tropical paradise with a stone temple in a clearing, and teems of bamboo and palm roofed shacks with a giant disco ball at their centre, this year Bestival becomes a Desert Island Disco.

Rob da Bank said, “Hey ya! By the power invested in me as chief Bestival booker, I'm pretty darn excited to announce that OutKast are headlining Bestival this year! We've fought hard to get the recently reunited legendary hip-hop duo onto the ferry... and it's no ordinary ferry this year as Bestival goes Desert Island Disco for 2014… Palm trees, grass skirts and mirrorballs are the order of the day. It truly is gonna be the Bestival yet!”

There are no other acts confirmed yet for the 11th Bestival, which will be held at Robin Hill Country Park on the Isle of Wight, are Thursday 4th until Sunday 7th September 2014.
