Bastille, Jacob Banks, and Swiss Lips will headline Cornwall's Leopallooza

Bastille, Jacob Banks, and Swiss Lips will headline this summer's 8th Leopallooza which returns to North Cornwall from Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th August 2013.

The festival will play host to new bands and artists in the UK, as well as the cream of the regional music scene. Also confirmed are The Skints, Blue Rose Code, Jetta, Wet Nuns, Findlay, Eliza and The Bear, Bebe Black, Straight Lines, and Kezia.

Leopallooza also hosts Mixmag editor Nick Decosemo who will be curating acts/DJs in The Treeline: House of Electronic Arts & Dance. There are also many more exciting additions to the Leopallooza weekend yet to be announced. 
 
Leopallooza is also now confirmed as the only UK stop on the Freeride Mountain Bike World Tour, as they host the inaugural 'Jack Gear Invitational' FMB event, which will see some of the best freestyle mountain bike riders in the world descend on Bude, to ride the challenging custom-built track set within the festival grounds.
 
For those new to the event, organisers explain, "Leopallooza is, essentially, a festival created by festival fans, and this informs the whole event. We works on a 'Later with Jools' style set-up, where bands alternate and the audience don’t have to walk long distances to visit the next stage. Queues are rare, the toilets are kept clean and food & drink prices are purposely kept low. There are no hidden charges."
 
The festival has its own huge bar called The Flying Squirrel, which has a view of both stages. It also has an eatery, called The Hungry Badger. The Leopallooza centrepiece is a car, which is loaded with wood and set on fire.

Once again the event will be taking place within 'The Wyldes' a custom made festival site set in a scenic, lush valley in North Cornwall, only a few miles from some of the best beaches in the UK.
