Its big sister is one of the most desirable dates in the festival calendar and the chosen location for this shindig is pretty damn gorgeous, so we’ve got high hopes for Camp Bestival.

Set at the legendary Lulworth Castle, against the stunning backdrop of England’s dramatic Jurassic coastline of Dorset, Camp Bestival aims to take the festival frolic back to its intimate roots, with only 10,000 tickets available.

With a nod to the 50’s style holiday camp, punters can expect Bestival Bluecoats and top class entertainment from the likes of Kate Nash, Billy Bragg, Andrew Weatherall and DJ Krust.

There’ll be a number of venues, including an Insect Stage, Balearic Bollywood arena and the Spiegeltent, with music running alongside comedy, spoken word, theatre in the woods and fireworks.

A dedicated kids area should keep the little tykes busy, whilst the adults ease away the days with chilled pints and laid back beats. The camping facilities are distinctly ‘boutique’ with hot showers, tipis, yurts and podpads all available for rent.

Book now if you love: brilliant beats, capers and comedy
Don’t miss: world-renowned human beat box Beardyman
