Camp Bestival 09 Wins A Greener Festival Award

We are delighted to announce that both Bestival and Camp Bestival have been awarded the Greener Festival Award 2009 with Bestival winning it in the ‘outstanding’ category!

“We've been working really hard to clean up our act at Bestival and encourage our Bestivalites to do the same so it's reassuring to be given this and told we're on the right lines. There's a long way to go still but we're on the right road!” Rob da Bank

These awards are presented by campaign and advice group www.agreenerfestival.com and are given to festivals who keep sustainability high on their agenda and who promote environmental awareness to their fans.

Bestival particularly impressed the assessors this year and was one of only 13 festivals worldwide to make it into the ‘outstanding’ category.

We are not ones to rest on our laurels though as 2010 will see us seriously up the ante with a whole raft of exciting new measures already in the pipeline… watch this space!
