Welcome to Camp Bestival, the UK’s original and most successful family festival.

Designed by families especially for families, Camp Bestival combines all the fun of a fantastic family camping holiday with everything you’d expect from an idyllic and action-packed festival adventure.

An oasis of intimate fables and tales, it’s the perfect escape for tinier tots (and their parents) who enjoy a more laid back flavour to their flights of fancy.

Accommodation

As Camp Bestival’s name suggests, we place a lot of emphasis on making sure your campsite experience is the best it can be. There are several different types of camping and accommodation fields at Camp Bestival – each with car parks relatively close by to reduce how far you’ll need to walk with all your kit (phew!), and each with their own tasty food stalls, recycling points, sets of showers and loos (many of which will be of the eco-friendly and non-smelly compostable variety), and more.
