“As we announce the line-up for the 6th edition of bluedot it’s with great pride in the team behind the show. From day one the festival has been ambitious in its programming and mission,” festival director Ben Robinson said in a press statement.
“Looking at the scale of iconic talent, breadth of genres & one off moments it really has matured into a very special vent. Thanks to everyone who’s continued to support the idea of bluedot, we look forward to gathering together again beneath the telescope with you all.”
Björk, Groove Armada and Metronomy were among acts to perform at last year’s Bluedot Festival.
Grace Jones, meanwhile, will also headline this year’s Camp Bestival alongside Craig David and The Kooks at the festival’s Dorset site at Lulworth Castle from July 27-30, 2023.
The musical icon last year closed out last year’s Meltdown Festival in London, which she curated.
In a five-star review, NME described the performance as “brilliant, unbridled chaos from one of the greats”.
