Victorious Festival has announced its first wave of artists for next summers’ three day event on Southsea Common, which takes place on 25/26/27 August 2023.
Headlining Friday night are acidjJazz icons Jamiroquai, fronted by the original Space Cowboy, Jay Kay.
The band are back to their funky best and with thirty years of stone cold tunes in their locker, including Virtual Insanity and Deeper Underground – expect a massive set of sing along anthems and some seriously groovy dancing.
The weekend features a host of amazing and diverse talent, including Scandi-synthpop singer-songwriter Sigrid, award-winning indie rock dynamos, The Vaccines – with Southampton-born lead singer, Justin Young – and the ever-eccentric alt-pop maestros, The Divine Comedy.
Elsewhere on the impressive bill is Beabadoobee, Amyl and The Sniffers, The Coral, The Enemy, Katy B, Dylan, Inspiral Carpets, Crawlers, Newton Faulkner and Wunderhorse.
Victorious Festival is known for its diverse lineup and laid-back atmosphere, making it a popular choice for music fans on the south coast.
Speaking about next year’s event, Andy Marsh, lead booker, says: “We’ve unveiled a little taste of next year’s line-up ahead of Christmas as a little festive treat for everyone.
“We have some incredible names confirmed already, but it’s just a fraction of what’s to come. We’re really excited about Victorious 2023, and we can’t wait to tell you more in the new year.”
Around 70,000 people attended this year’s festival on the Sunday. The 2022 event featured headliners Sam Fender, Bastille and Paolo Nutini.
