Speaking on Camp Bestival Shropshire’s day split announcement, Camp Bestival curator’s Josie & Rob da Bank said: “Roll up roll up! Due to popular demand, we are ready to rock and roll with our Day Tickets for both Camp Bestivals. We create the festivals with love for a 4-day experience with camping but know that for various reasons some of you just want to come for the day. We have some epic day splits for your delectation and can’t wait to see you all in the fields”.
The party starts on Friday 18 August with pop-royalty Rudimental, alongside disco diva Sophie Ellis-Bextor and playlist dominators Confidence Man as headliners. Junior Andre will make his Camp Bestival debut alongside Manchester legends Bez & Rowetta, The Bootleg Beatles and Dub Pistols who will deliver a DJ set for the whole family to remember. Man Vs. Baby, Badly Drawn Boy and Horrible Histories – Barmy Britain will also descend onto the fields on the Friday.
Moving into Saturday, synth-pop’s first international superstars The Human League will lead the headlining trinity opened by DJ legends Groove Armada and BBC Radio 2 DJ Sara Cox. 90s pop icons Melanie C and Dick and Dom as well as the children’s idols Mr Tumble and Mister Maker will keep the beats popping on Saturday. Sara Cox will lead and judge this year’s family fancy dress competition on the second day of the Shropshire jamboree.
Headlining the final day of Camp Bestival Shropshire is the iconic Scottish rock band Primal Scream, Space-Man Sam Ryder and singer-songwriter Ella Henderson. East 17 will deliver a truly sensational Christmas themed set in August, mixed with everyone’s favourite motivator, Mr Motivator, Hot Dub Time Machine, Napalm Death and legendary party series Bongo’s Bingo.
