Reading Festival has a huge variety these days so the kids love it and there’s still plenty of guitar music in a nod to its rich rock history. And over in Dorset Camp Bestival is perfect for families with all sort of attractions to keep the children busy while you lean back and get into the festival spirit.
This year Reading is on August 21 to 25. There is Liam Gallagher, no doubt playing lots of Oasis on the 30th anniversary of their huge debut album Definitely Maybe.
Then there’s Blink 182, Fred Again.., Lana Del Rey, Raye, Fontaines D.C., Catfish and the Bottlemen, 21 Savage and Pendulum among the acts also on the main stage.
There’s also the Chevron Stage with The Prodigy, Bou, Sonny Fodera, Barry Can’t Swim, Skrillex, Nia Archives and so much more. There’s also the Festival Republic Stage, BBC Introducing Stage, the Aux Stage.
Camp Bestival, the UK’s favourite family festival, is heading back to Lulworth Castle, Dorset, from July 25 to 28 with a lineup featuring a UK festival exclusive headline performance from Pete Tong Ibiza Classics J- ules Buckley & The Essential Orchestra, pop Queen Paloma Faith and McFly. James Arthur will appear alongside Orbital, Scissor Sisters co-lead vocalist Jake Shears, rock band The Darkness and UK chart-topper Sophie Ellis-Bextor all descending onto the fields. Plus, explore a world of new activities including Space Camp, parkour and freerunning, Football Club, figure drawing, wall climbing and even beekeeping.
Camp Bestival co-curator Rob da Bank said: “We have officially got the best family weekend experience ever. This is your chance to treat the family to a memory making wonder world of music, fun, food and free activities. There is literally something for everyone, so don’t hang about!”
Families will be excited to see Mr Tumble takes to the stage with a set full of non-stop fun. Camp Bestival family favourites Dick and Dom will also appear on the second day of the festival alongside Brainiac Live as well as two days of family raving with Big Fish Little Fish.
Families can also have a workout session with Mr Motivator, enjoy some uplifting kids raving with Junior Jungle, learn history with humour via Horrible Histories: Rotten Royals and jump into a set of outrageous fun with Camp Bestival stalwarts The Cuban Brothers.
Fashioned from classic caravans and old fairground parts, Caravanserai, seen at the Brighton Festival before, will provide another great space for partying and live music.
There’s also yoga, art, meditation, tai chi, massage and a roller rink, among the many diverse areas.
