Live the family festival lifestyle everyday

Get wild. Get messy. 'Dad dance' like no one's watching. Nourish your body and mind. Let go of the reins and the routines. Make memories and have some serious fun.

From the co-founders of the award-winning family festival, Camp Bestival at Home is the perfect handbook for parents who want to bring the magical ethos of the festival home.

Packed with activities, recipes and ideas to keep the whole family inspired all year round, why not get back to nature and stargaze. For kids with endless energy, you could organise a kitchen disco or put on a show. Go foraging, learn circus skills and face painting, or make festive decorations. And relax after all the activity with a family feast, plus some yoga for the grown-ups.

Written and illustrated by Camp Bestival co-founders Josie and Rob da Bank, with contributions from celebrity friends and festival regulars Fatboy Slim, Sara Cox, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Fearne Cotton and Jo Whiley.

Rob da Bank (Author) Rob da Bank is a DJ and co-founder of the UK's most acclaimed family festival, Camp Bestival. Over his extensive career he has been (among other things) a music journalist, a club promoter, a label boss, a music producer and now a wellness guru and meditation teacher. Rob was also a Radio One DJ for 12 years. Along with his wife and artistic partner Josie, Rob launched Bestival in 2004 and was one of the first people to champion genres such as grime and dubstep on the festival scene. Camp Bestival was launched in 2008 and is known as the UK's ultimate family festival, having won Best Family Festival at the UK Festival Awards six times. Taking place over the summer holidays at Lulworth Castle on Dorset's Jurassic Coast, and now Weston Park, Shropshire, Camp Bestival combines an all-encompassing family festival experience with an action-packed camping holiday to create the ultimate Festi-Holiday! When they're not curating award-winning family festivals, Rob and Josie live on the Isle of Wight with their four sons. Rob and Josie have recently established Slow Motion Wellness - a site with luxury accommodation for cold water therapy retreats, meditation workshops, yoga (which Josie sometimes teaches) and more. Rob is a qualified meditation teacher with a huge passion for saunas, curating a pop up in Kings Cross this January for his Slow Motion Wellness Saunas. Josie da Bank (Author) Josie da Bank is an artist, illustrator and co-founder of the UK's most acclaimed family festival, Camp Bestival. She is best known for her unique artistic style - think post-acid house meets hippy. She has designed sleeves for her husband Rob's Sunday Best Recordings compilations, curated one of Shoreditch's first stylish bars, Cocomo, and produced two of the best-loved festivals of this century - Bestival and Camp Bestival. Oh, and not forgetting the small matter of raising four sons. Her recent projects include designing bars and restaurants on the Isle of Wight, one of the few benefits of taking an enforced break from the event industry during the pandemic. Josie and Rob have also established Slow Motion Wellness - a site with luxury accommodation for cold water therapy retreats, meditation workshops, yoga (which Josie sometimes teaches) and more.
