Okay, so it’s not this island, but for 3 days of the year a huge amount of Strong Islanders head over to the Isle of Wight for Rob Da Banks Bestival extravaganza. For the past 6 years the Southsea contingency has gone from strength to strength, and this year is no exception. Dozens of us will be taking to the ferrys next Friday to get well and truly involved.

Local mad cats Brendon & Morgan will be closing the Bestival up nicely in The Cabaret Tent at 1.30am playing a Silent Disco alongside New Young Pony Club. If you’ve got any strength left get yourself down there and finish up nicely with some local reppin’. Also to boot Krywolf are playing. I don’t have the full details on that, but check it once you get your timetable and make sure to head over.

Rob Da Bank posted a little clip the other day showing the lay of the land over at Robin Hill. The Main Stage has moved again, and the old Bollywood set up has returned. The Rizla Arena has now gone, but is made up for with the extended Arcadia Presents where the original Main Stage used to be. There are also some brand new fields and areas that are typically Bestival. Can’t wait. check the video out HERE.
