wild life festival

Way back in 2015 Disclosure and Rudimental started a festival known as Wild Life and it was awesome.

Fast forward to 2017 and now in its 3rd consecutive year running, Wild Life announces it will return to Brighton City Airport on Friday 9th and Saturday 10th JUNE 2017.

First headliners have been announced as FATBOY SLIM and JESS GLYNNE. Also announced to take to the WILD LIFE stages are ERIC PRYDZGEORGE EZRARAG’N’BONE MAN, and ELROW’S SOMBODROMO DE BRASIL – with much more including secret sets by returning acts and a third headliner still to be revealed.

Weekend tickets are on sale Friday 27th January 2017 from www.wildlifefestival.com

Headlining WILD LIFE 2017 is Brighton’s very own, Fatboy Slim. Named by Q Magazine as one of ‘50 Bands to See Before You Die’ and with ten MTV VMAs and two BRIT Awards to date, Fatboy Slim’s live set is not to be missed.

WILD LIFE welcomes the return of Grammy Award-winning Jess Glynne, appearing as headliner on the main stage for the first time at the festival since opening the very first WILD LIFE in 2015. With five UK number one singles to date, Jess Glynne featured on tracks such as Clean Bandit’s ‘Rather Be’ and ‘My Love’ by Route 94 before releasing her triple platinum-selling, number one debut album, ‘I Cry When I Laugh’ in 2015.

Other acts also confirmed to perform at WILD LIFE 2017 include pioneering DJ and producer Eric Prydz, known for his huge hit singles as well as his ground-breaking releases and live shows under the name Pryda.  UK artist and rapper Wiley also joins this year’s WILD LIFE line up. From his pioneering days with UK garage crews such as Pay As You Go Cartel and Roll Deep, to his latest album The Godfather, Wiley has cemented his status as the ‘Godfather of Grime’. The return of four-time BRIT Award nominated George Ezra as well as Sussex-born winner of the 2017 BRITs Critic’s Choice Award Rag’n’Bone Man have both been revealed today.

Also announced today, world-famous elrow will be bringing a new immersive party to this year’s WILD LIFE Festival: Sambodromo De Brasil. The vibrant Brazilian jungle themed party captures the flamboyance, energy and boundless fun of WILD LIFE. World-class DJs, stilt-walking samba dancers and endless confetti will create a kaleidoscopic carnival vibe and even some Amazonian party people bearing gifts like cassava snacks and other Brazilian delicacies: there’s no end to what you might find at elrow at WILD LIFE this year.

WILD LIFE Festival 2017 (crowned Best New Festival 2015 – UK Festival Awards) will see tens of thousands of festival goers descend on Shoreham’s Brighton City Airport for its third year, bringing the very best of an eclectic mix of dance, pop, indie, hip-hop and more.
