The Latitude Festival has announced its first batch of acts for 2020. They include Bill Bailey, HAIM, Liam Gallagher and The Chemical Brothers.
The festival, in Henham Park, Suffolk, runs from 16th-19th July. Weekend tickets are on sale Friday 6th December at 9am here.
Bill Bailey said: “Last time I played Latitude it wasn’t too bad so I’m quite looking forward to headlining in 2020.”
Latitude favourite Dr John Cooper Clarke will take a break from writing his forthcoming autobiography, I Wanna Be Yours, to make a welcome return to the festival. Cooper Clarke's status as the Emperor of Punk Poetry is undeniable as is his reputation as a brilliant versifier, a poet of vicious wit and a razor-sharp social satirist. Effortlessly immediate and contemporary, full of hard-won wisdom and expert blindsiding, it's easy to see why the good Doctor has continued to inspire several new generations of performers from Alex Turner to Plan B. As well as an electric live show, festival goer’s have the chance to see Jonny Green interview Dr John Cooper Clarke, in an exclusive retrospective.
Liam Gallagher was unveiled as Latitude’s secret act in 2018 where the British icon gave a legendary performance, and 2020 will see the Rockstar give an unforgettable headline performance. Liam’s rise has been stratospheric in the past 12 months; his documentary As It Was, a second solo album Why Me? Why Not, and a triumphant sold out UK tour. His Latitude performance promises to be biblical!
Liam said: "Yes brothers and sisters, I'm glad to announce I'll be headlining Latitude Festival next Summer. LG"
