Dick and Dom return to bring utter chaos and Camila Batmanghelidjh to keep them in check!

As always an incredibly jam-packed event is in store at this year’s Camp Bestival, so it will come as no real surprise that the Camp Bestival crew have added a whole host of brilliant new additions to complement the previously announced acts.

Legendary Madchester trailblazers Happy Mondays will be headlining Sunday night at Camp Bestival. So you can expect to hear classics like Step On, Kinky Afro, Hallelujah, 24 Hour Party People and more to keep you freaky dancin’ to the very last in the shadow of Lulworth Castle.


Loved by the nation for their infectious smash Staying Out For The Summer and with a critically acclaimed new album endearing them to our hearts once more Dodgy will be providing the perfect summer sing-along.

Rocksteady rudeboy Little Roy whose Battle for Seattle album covering classic Nirvana tracks in his own inimitable style has seen him enjoying huge critical acclaim. Plus there will be live sets from bass explorer Redlight, Wretch 32 collaborator Josh Kumra, up and coming singer songwriter Ryan Keen and LA hipster-hippie Jenny O.

DJs include the irresistible and all-conquering 2 Bears, whose recent Be Strong album has been getting almost everybody everywhere pretty hot and bothered. Mr Scruff will be manning the decks for another epic session of madcap mayhem. Plus reggae stalwart DJ Derek, cutting edge joy from Maya Jane Coles, blistering bassline salvos from Gemini, beat alchemy from Luv*Jam and underground action from Dave Hornby the man behind Bournemouth’s renowned Shake.
