Chic feat. Nile Rodgers to close Bestival 2014

Chic featuring Nile Rodgers are set to bring this summer’s Bestival to a close.

The disco legends will top the bill on the Sunday night of the festival, and join previously announced headline acts Beck, Outkast and Foals.

Speaking about his headline set Nile Rodgers said: “I’m so excited to be back at Bestival, this time in the prestigious Sunday night headliner slot following legends Stevie Wonder and Elton John.

“Expect an extra special Desert Island Disco set from myself and Chic! Looking forward to seeing you all in September”

Festival organiser Rob da Bank added: “Ever since I first booked Chic and Nile for Bestival a few years back they have hands down been the best live band we’ve ever had at Bestival and Camp Bestival.

“I’m over the moon that Nile and the crew are going to wrap up our Desert Island Disco Finale with a damn funky, glittery bang. Everybody Dance!”

Bestival takes place at Robin Hill County Park on the Isle Of Wight from 4 – 7 September, 2014. Tickets are on sale now.
