CAMP Bestival ticket-holders are about to be All Cried Out with excitement as more acts are announced for this year’s line-up.
Alison Moyet, Sir Bob Geldof, rock band Level 42, and X Factor favourites Only the Young will all be gracing the stage at Lulworth Castle between July 30 and August 2.
And there’s more reason to be green with envy of happy campers- rapper Professor Green is also set to appear.
Festival organiser Rod da Bank said: “I don't know where to start with our typically all encompassing, diverse and pretty wild line-up. Maybe at the end, with electronic mega-dons Underworld revving up for the grand finale on Sunday all the way back through iconic pop from Alison Moyet, Level 42 and Bob Geldof, young guns Wretch 32, Pro Green and Clean Bandit, plus the hottest new blood Kate Tempest, Slaves and George The Poet. I'm really hoping there’s a lot to discover at Camp Bestival, 2015. Not forgetting our most requested act every year and a total legend- Mr Tumble.”
Previously announced acts for this year include the Kaiser Chiefs, Underworld and Clean Bandit.
But there’ll also be some local favourites- Weymouth Ukuleleans will be appearing once again.
The Feast Collective will also be back for the second year in a row at the award-winning family festival.
This year, Camp Bestival is going wild. Whether it’s jumping in puddles or making tents, the young (and young at heart) will have a chance to unwind and unplug and go back to nature.
And there’s a whole host of family fun; entertainers Dick and Dom will ‘Go Wild in the Ring’, there’ll be Oberon’s Observatory and Dr Suess classic The Cat in the Hat.
Rob said: “As Camp veterans know, music is only one part of the adventure and our incredible creative crew have really pulled it out of the bag with some really wild arts and kids shenanigans from The Train Trip to West End Kids and all the amazing workshops and wild activities to boot.”
