The headline acts for Shropshire's newest music festival have been announced.

FatBoy Slim, Rag'n'Bone Man, and Becky Hill are among the bands who will perform at the very first Camp Bestival Shropshire.

The festival will take place at Weston Park from 18-21 August.

Other artists due to perform over the weekend include Scouting for Girls and Shed Seven.

Organisers Josie & Rob da Bank said: "It's been so exhilarating to announce a new festival and always exciting to announce the first line-up. Camp Bestival is not a straight up music festival - its a living, breathing art, food, wellness and theatrical extravaganza over 4 days where the tiny leftfield acts playing are as important as the heavy hitting headliners like Fatboy Slim and Becky Hill. Throw in a stunt motorbike and fire field, world beating comedy, laughter yoga, a huge emphasis on dressing up, inclusivity and accessibility for all and we literally cant wait to unveil it all in August. See you in the fields!".

Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday.
