Already full to the gunwales with incredible music and festi-holiday fun for all the family, the Camp Bestival crew are giddy with joy to welcome even more buccaneers, deckhands and swabbers aboard our ship of awe bringing all manner of ocean-sized entertainment in their wake this coming 26-29 July at Lulworth Castle, Dorset.

Spring has sprung and summer is finally on its way, so we thought we’d give you even more seafaring fun and games for this year’s Camp B! Something for everyone is our unspoken motto and from meet and greets with family favourites, pop stars, and reggae legends, to shenanigans and hoe-downs in Caravanserai, lindy hopping in Pig’s Big Ballroom and amazing raving for all ages, we’ve never had so much to see and do – Captain of the ship, Rob da Bank

Upping the family fun factor even more, don’t miss the chance to come and see some very familiar faces at our meet and greets with a triumvirate of family favourites. Peter Rabbit™, Peppa Pig and Paddington™, will all be heading to Lulworth Castle to make personal appearances at intervals throughout Camp Bestival. Catch Peter Rabbit on Friday 27th, Peppa Pig on Saturday 28th, and Paddington on Sunday 29th July.
