Speaking on Camp Bestival Shropshire’s Line-up announcement, Camp Bestival curator’s Josie & Rob da Bank said:
“It’s been so exhilarating to announce a new festival and always exciting to announce the first line up. Camp Bestival is not a straight up music festival – it’s a living, breathing art, food, wellness and theatrical extravaganza over 4 days where the tiny leftfield acts playing on are as important as the heavy hitting headliners like Fatboy Slim and Becky Hill. Throw in a stunt motorbike and fire field, world beating comedy, laughter yoga, a huge emphasis on dressing up, inclusivity and accessibility for all and we literally can’t wait to unveil it all in August. See you in the fields!”
Cementing his place as Camp Bestival’s favourite son, Fatboy Slim heads up the myriad musical treats that also include the deeply resonant Rag’n’Bone Man and chic chanteuse Becky Hill as headliners.
Ensuring there is utter excitement for all ages at all times there is plenty of family fun with Horrible Histories: Terrible Tudors, Brainiac Live: Remixed!, amazing tricksters Extreme Bike Battle, CB royalty Mr Tumble and Mister Maker & Rebecca Keatley. Plus, there’s a host of good times on offer from Family Silent Discos and The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show to Yolanda’s Band Jam, Kung Fu For Kids, a dazzling fireworks finale and much, much more.
Speaking on the Camp Bestival Shropshire line-up, Fatboy Slim said:
“This year I’m thrilled to join Camp Bestival as it takes up residence in Shropshire for the very first time. People be prepared to enjoy festi-love, dancing and laughter for the whole family in a way that only the Camp Bestival goers know how.”
