THE world's largest bouncy castle is coming to Dorset this summer.
The giant inflatable will be making an appearance at Camp Bestival which takes place between July 28 and 31.
It is set to make its debut at this weekend's Common People festival in Southampton.
Measuring a whopping 23.8 metres long and 20.7 metres wide, the bouncy castle stands at 12.8 metres tall at its highest point.
The side turrets are equal in height to the walls of Cardiff Castle, making it taller than the Great Wall of China and roughly three times the size of the Berlin Wall.
Filled with 1143 cubic metres of air it can accommodate 100 people at one time.
The castle has been specially made by Cardiff-based firm Something Creatives. Festival founder Rob da Bank said: “We do love breaking a record and this is one of our funnest builds so far. Me and my mate Matt from the infamous Inflatable Church had a pipe dream about five years ago of building the world’s biggest bouncy castle, and this summer we’re making that a reality.
"So polish your socks and step up for what will be one of the most innocent of pleasures - bouncing up and down with gay abandon with your mates, family or friendly strangers. See you on the castle!”
