Camp Bestival wins Best New Festival!

We are exceptionally proud to announce that Camp Bestival won the Best New Festival 2008 award at this year’s Festival Awards.  Voted for by the festival going public, the people whose opinions really count, the award is vindication for the unstinting effort that has gone into staging the brand new event.

Taking time out from the well-deserved celebrations Rob da Bank said:

"Wow! - we are over the ruddy moon that Camp Bestival scooped Best New Festival at the 2008 Festival Awards - thanks for voting for us and come back next year for an even better fun family festi!"


Created by the award winning team behind Bestival and curated by BBC Radio 1’s Rob da Bank, Camp Bestival was held in the stunningly beautiful grounds of Lulworth Castle on the Jurassic Coast of Dorset on the 18, 19, 20th July 2008. Inspired by the halcyon days of summers past and the Great British holiday camp, Camp Bestival served up with a generous helping of Bestival’s special sense of mischief and saw incredible headline sets from Rock ‘n’ Roll legend Chuck Berry, psychedelic troubadours The Flaming Lips and sassy songstress Kate Nash.

Camp Bestival returns a week later in 2009 - 24, 25, 26th July 2009 - and will be back at Lulworth Castle in Dorset.
