Festival founder and organiser, Rob da Bank, said: "So, I’ve got 'Blue Monday' blaring out of the Bestival HQ office speakers as we unveil our iconic Saturday night headliner New Order.

"It doesn’t get better than that. But it does. True Faith, Bizarre Love Triangle, Fine Time, Regret – so many amazing records I grew up listening to and still listen to now and they still sound immense, pioneering, legendary.

"See you down the front."
