Kasabian, Keane, London Grammar, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Orbital, Khruangbin, Rick Astley, Mary Wallopers, Reverend & the Makers and Sara Pascoe.
Not sure on day splits but expect all of the above will be announced plus a few others.

If that’s anywhere near the line up I’ll be buying deer shed tickets instead 🤣 Keane and Kasabian alone are enough to put me off 😅

The announcements being made on Virgin Radio from 11 tomorrow, I'd imagine the poster will drop shortly after I've seen a fair few people on the Liam Gallagher/Haim bandwagon now too so guess we'll see I'm very excited to see who else they have in store

Cher for the cheesy Sunday pop slot!
I reckon we'll get about 20ish names, annoyingly they've said day tickets are being released in the new year so we might not get day splits I'm just excited to see what else they have in store, but as we know you can never be sure what they have up their sleeve!

This a guess or insider scoop? We chatted to John R&TM at the waterfront Norwich show earlier this and he said about Latitude, so this list might be accurate

We chatted to John R&TM at the waterfront Norwich show earlier this and he said about Latitude, so this list might be accurate I wouldn't be surprised if some of these acts appear, I'm not sure if London Grammar are active currently though and I feel it's probably a bit too soon for Rick Astley to come back Intrigued to see what else they have in store

Possibly the first time I've listened to Virgin Radio in about a decade. 11:05 and nothing yet. Do I have to listen to the whole of D:Ream's hit to have access?

Quite underwhelmed by this...

What happened to all your supposed leaks, Treacle? I thought you had proof that the Killers, Self Esteem, LG and Wolf Alice were playing?

Pretty poor start. I can’t see the logic in taking tickets off sale? At 300.00 they’re hardly going to fly out. Or maybe I’m wrong perhaps the DD announcement earlier in the year will have whipped up enough of a frenzy to keep the festival solvent and this current batch fits the same demographic. Sad for what was once a great festival though.

Quite underwhelmed by this... Quite underwhelmed somewhat understates my position! I really want it to have a good lineup, as it is my local festival, but that lineup is like something Radio 2 would put together for a party in a London park.

Eurgh.
My one faint hope is that orbital and khruangbin are indicative of a decent undercard, and this announcement (given it was on Virgin radio) is the total of the Sunday Singalong stuff. Hopefully they’ll shift to 6music for the next wave.
No excuse for Kasabian though.

Would LOVE to see Orbital (as long as they ONLY play Snivilisation. I mean....I like the other stuff. But Snivilisation is an utter masterpiece). Kasabian would be good for a cidered up boozy singalong. The rest is way beyond 'meh'.
It's increasingly looking as if I'm never gonna be back in Henham Park. Price doesn't help. But I could maybe justify spending out if there was enough to do so. A dance outfit from 30 years ago (I'm generalising obviously, as I love them. But still....) and an excuse to get tanked up and be a fucking LAD (again, im generalising as i think kasabian are a bit better than that....) is no where near enough justification to spend extra honk.
Shame. Again.

Yeah, it's pretty bland. Talk of the festival folding is a bit hasty, though. It sold out last year and probably will this time too, if only for the fact it's taking place in the school holidays and has a family-friendly lineup.
I would say that one thing this lineup has in its favour is that there aren't too many repeat bookings. Rick Astley and Rag 'N' Bone Man are the only names to appear semi-recently. It's surprising there isn't any big newer act on the bill to interest younger attendees, but I'm sure there's much more to come.
Perhaps a bit odd to release about 1/3rd of the lineup though. They really don't follow a clear pattern with these releases.

Oh well hope burns eternal etc…

I love London Grammar. Saw them at an album release gig in Leeds last year and they were sublime. Probably 500 people there. Fantastic.
How they come across to 25,000 people in a field is a different matter.
Duran, Kasabian and Keane will all rely heavily on past 'glories' which is a bit sad.

A bit baffled at how little they announced too and that they've not given any stage or day splits too, I guess only 14 names means there's a lot more to come so maybe they're holding back a few bigger names for the next announcement? My current guess is Friday - Keane/London Grammar Saturday - Kasabian Sunday - Duran Duran

When do we think the next wave will be announced?, I know nobodies forcing me to go but what an utterly boring lineup. I have high hopes that any undercards and the bbc sounds or 6 music tent will save this!.
