Rob da Bank says: “We like to think we’re pretty open-minded and uninhibited at Bestival… and it certainly feels like that in the middle of the night down by the Amphitheatre. It might be off the beaten track but it’s definitely one to search out if you’re looking to have your mind blown by all manner of crazy things. From our mates Sink the Pink, Jodie Harsh and Scottee to madcap theatre, spellbinding poetry and brilliant comedy you won’t know what’s hit you”.
Bestival takes place from 8th - 11th September at Robin Hill Countryside Adventure Park, over the years the festival has evolved into one of the UK's largest festival, without ever losing the 'boutique' feel. The festival rightly prides itself on the diversity of music together with the some of most imaginative stage designs you are likely to see.
