Festival season is well & truly upon us for 2023 and it’s not too late to ensure that you’re there this summer with your family! If you’re a regular reader of Mumbler, you will remember when we visited Camp Bestival in Shropshire last year- it was the first time they’d brought Camp Bestival up north (the original Camp Bestival is at Lulworth Castle in Dorset and will run 27-30th July)
Well I’m delighted to let you know that Camp Bestival Shropshire is coming back this summer to Weston Park 17-20th August.
It is no exaggeration to say that our weekend at Camp Bestival last summer was one of the most fun, memorable family weekends that we’ve ever had! We cannot wait to go back this summer.
There are still limited tickets available for both locations so don’t wait… Get booking!

Junior Andre will make his Camp Bestival debut alongside Manchester legends Bez & Rowetta, The Bootleg Beatles and Dub Pistols who will deliver a DJ set for the whole family to remember. Man Vs. Baby, Badly Drawn Boy and Horrible Histories – Barmy Britain will also descend onto the fields on the Friday.
Moving into Saturday, synth-pop’s first international superstars The Human League will lead the headlining trinity opened by DJ legends Groove Armada and BBC Radio 2 DJ Sara Cox. Space-Man Sam Ryder and Dick and Dom as well as the children’s idols Mr Tumble and Mister Maker will keep the beats popping on Saturday.
