Line-Up:
Clenching the all-important headline spot for this year’s Citadel Festival are Australian psych-rockers Tame Impala who will bring a UK-exclusive set to South London this July. They are joined by a once again brilliant lineup which sees CHVRCHES, Leon Bridges, Fat White Family, The Horrors, La Femme, Honne, Shame, Sea Girls, Goat Girl and more head to the one-dayer. With more names yet to be announced there’s no doubt that this year’s edition will be one of the best yet.
