The Bestival Fest is a four-day music festival in Isle of Wight, England. Originally founded by BBC Radio 1 leftfield DJ Rob da Bank, the festival provides innovative and quirky entertainment beyond live performances, like the Big Love Inflatable Church for spontaneous weddings, which will be located in an area called Wishing Tree Field. But it also boasts a really impressive line up, with bigger names to take the main stage each night, including Friday night headliners, Florence and The Machine.

Florence Welch has been a longstanding Bestival performer, having played the main stage before, but this time around their headlining announcement comes in the form of the band dressed up in animal suits, as they cover Talking Heads’ “Wild, Wild Life.” It’s fairly adorable, and really seems in the spirit of Bestival. Watch below.
