FINALLY! The first acts have been announced for Longitude 2017
After waiting for months to find out whether or not Longitude was actually happening or not, it has finally been revealed that the festival is going ahead, and a sliver of the line up has been leaked.
Mumford & Sons, Baaba Maal, Jack Garratt, Glass Animals, Lucy Rose and "many more" are said to be heading to Marley Park this coming summer.
The acts were revealed by Gentlemen of the Road, partners of Longitude, on Twitter.
