Description
Common People HQ has been working overtime feverishly planning the blockbuster second instalment of our two-day metropolitan adventure set in the leafy green bliss of Southampton Common. And now the time has come to reveal the first wave of acts for our bank holiday bonanza featuring UK garage pioneers, hip-hop royalty and more, all topped off with a lavish helping of the Bestival team’s renowned magic, mayhem and merriment. Reuniting party lovers across the south coast and beyond don’t miss out on the festival season’s stunning opener this 28-29 May 2016.
Common People curator Rob da Bank says: “Common People was one of my funnest weekends festivaling in 2015, and believe me there was some competition! So, I’m really excited to share our first announcement, with some corkers from Craig David to one of my all-time faves Public Enemy, and up-and-coming acts Jamie Lawson and Kurupt FM. Hope you can come and sing along with the Common People!”
Yes indeed, Saturday 28th May will see a triumphant homecoming headline set from one of Southampton’s finest, Craig David! A massive hit at Bestival 2015, Craig’s esteemed TS5 show combines massive old skool anthems, R&B, swing beat, garage, bashment, and chart topping house with his instantly recognisable vocals to create something truly unique. Set to be utterly historic, you definitely don’t want to miss this one!
