Camp Bestival (500 Tickets Left!)
Roll up, roll up for your very last chance to enjoy some Bestival magic this summer! Camp Bestival, our ground breaking new festival that mixes up cutting edge musical treats with the halcyon days of the Great British Holiday Camp has just 500 tickets left, so you’ll have to be quick to be part of history, witnessing the debut of a brand new Bestival Bazaar!
Featuring rock n roll architect Chuck Berry, festival legends Flaming Lips and the incomparable Kate Nash in the headline slots, there’s also a staggering array of amusements including The Laughter Library, Karaoke with a twist, Physics In the Field, Come Dancing, Strummerville, the Knitting Tent and oh, so much more, The word momentous doesn’t even begin to cover what we have planned, so if you haven’t already got your tickets then we suggest you get on the blower quick smart!
If you are already one of the lucky ticket holders, then you need to pay attention to this! With the weather forecast looking mighty fine, it’s time to dust down the trusty old tent and to dig out your best dancing shoes. Camp Bestival is a madcap holiday camp with added Hi De Hi vibes and infinite possibilities to lose yourself in a wicked weekend of enchanted fun. With the Flaming Lips’ fancy dress abilities already world renowned, we need to make sure we show them the best dressed crowd they’ve ever seen, so remember your fancy dress - this years theme for Camp Bestival is the Mad Hatters Tea Party. Of course our legendary Dressing Up Area will be on hand to help the adults get dolled up and lose their inhibitions and we’ll also have a separate Kid’s Dressing Up Area (& Catwalk) so the little’uns can get involved too!
As well as dressing up to the nines it’s just as important to remember to bring a musical instrument of your choice, we’re suggesting a none-more-rock ’n’ roll Kazoo. Not only will you feel more powerful with a kazoo in your pocket but you’ll also be able to take part in the world’s largest Marching Band that will also feature alpine horns, tin cans, magical whistles, pied pipers, musical megaphones, squeezeboxes, cardboard boxes, and a kazoo disco orchestra.
