On their addition to the Rebellion lineup, Menzingers vocalist Tom May says:

A couple of pints by the shore in a Stephen King-esque British ocean town swarming with generations of punks filing in and out all weekend to a soundtrack of living legends? Sign me the fuck up.

In covering all eras of punk, Rebellion Festival has already booked acts such as Stiff Little Fingers, Buzzcocks, The Exploited, Discharge, UK Subs, The Wildhearts, D.R.I., The Adolescents, Toxic Reasons and Raw Power alongside 200 other bands and acts.
