A massive thanks to everyone who came to Camp Bestival 2011!
A massive thank you to everyone who came to Camp Bestival this year – you were an amazing crowd and all helped make it our best show yet. Make sure you upload your images and take a look at our photo albums on the Camp Bestival Facebook Page.
We’re already in planning for next year’s event and are pleased to announced that our Camp Bestival holiday spectacular will once again kick off on the first weekend of the school summer holidays on the 26th, 27th, 28th and 29th July 2012 and from next Friday 12th August we’ll be rolling out a number of 2012 early bird tickets at 2011 fixed rate prices - full details to be announced soon.
A jubilant Rob da Bank told us his delight: "A massive thanks to everyone for coming along to our Camp Besti festi-holiday this year. It was an absolute corker and we're still buzzing and now can't wait for Camp Bestival 2012 - it may be a year away but if you want to get in early then the Early Bird tickets are coming atcha on Friday 12th August - hi de hi campers!"
And here’s a few words from some of our friends:
"Camp Bestival was our UK highlight of the tour so far. Thank you so much."
Mark Ronson
"Camp Bestival is the ultimate in family festivals"
Virtual Festivals (9/10 review)
"The fancy dress kiddie-fest boasts an enchanting backdrop for family fun"
The Times
"A delicious, beguiling event brimming with children, music and good grub to boot"
Metro
"Camp Bestival has now carved itself a place as the ultimate festival for all the family, with something suitable for every member."
Glamour
"If you are a parent you fancy introducing your kids to a festival that is the same amount of fun for them as it is for you, then Camp Bestival is the ticket. It fully deserves its award winning accreditations."

Highlights of Camp Bestival 2011 included a Swan Lake flashmob when English National Ballet appeared on the Castle Stage with ZingZillas to teach everybody the steps to the famous ballet piece, Ed Sheeran popping up in the Dingly Dell for a secret set, Laura Marling playing a mesmerising set in the Big Top while Jack Whitehall and Michael “motormouth” Winslow had us in the palm of their hands with their extraordinary comedy routines.
The kids will never forget meeting Peppa Pig and Shrek, their incredible journeys around The House Of Fairy Tales or legendary kids TV hosts Dick & Dom introducing Mr Tumble, The Gruffalo and ZingZillas on the Castle Stage. More musical treats included Blondie, Mark Ronson & The Business Intl plus a host of friends, Primal Scream presents Screamadelica, House Of Pain, Katy B, ABC, Groove Armada presents Red Light and Eliza Doolittle.
Other magical moments included Howard Marks and Keith Allen reading Children’s Stories on the Bandstand, Sara Cox judging the Family Talent Show, the grand finale of Come Dancing, the incredible Square Peg Circus Company, Lilli Vanilli’s cake competition plus scrumptious food and drinks from Hugh’s River Cottage Café, Gizzi Erskine’s Tiki Tea Love Lounge and Kerstin Rodgers’ The Underground Restaurant.
Sunday night saw the fuse lit for the sizzling finale: an epic fireworks, medieval themed animation and music display created by Two Tigers Fireworks, Chroma Collective and Brightonart that used the backdrop of Lulworth Castle and drew a close to Camp Bestival 2011 in true style. Check out a clip of the fireworks finale here. Full offical video coming next week!
