On Sunday it will be South Shields' Sam Fender to headline - with the heartland rocker capping an incredible rise to fame that has seen him headline London's Finsbury Park. The special afternoon guest slot is taken by Sugababes, touring again as the original and iconic trio - Mutya Buena, Siobhán Donaghy and Keisha Buchanan. Nutini is joined on Saturday by Bastille, the Wombats and Declan McKenna, whilst festival favourites Ocean Colour Scene will also perform alongside their Britpop contemporaries Kula Shaker. Paolo Nutini headlines the Saturday, marking his return after not releasing an album since 2014.
Elsewhwere on the Friday line up are Self Esteem, fresh from her enormously successful 2021 with album-of-the-year nods aplenty, and excellent Derry singer-songwriter Soak. They will be joined on the Friday by Britpoppers James, as well as Primal Scream bringing festivalgoers in early for the afternoon special guest slot. It marks the Welsh band's second appearance at Victorious Festival, having rocked the Common Stage with a headline performance back in 2017.

Returning to Southsea Common are Stereophonics, for the Friday night headline slot. Victorious Festival returns to Southsea Common for 2022, with a host of the biggest names in music heading to Southsea Common, alongside great family entertainment over the summer Bank Holiday.
