Camp Bestival add Phoenix, Will Young, Tinchy Stryder, & morefancy dress theme is 'Animal Magic', and new installment ticket schemeWednesday 18th March 2009 Phoenix, Will Young, and Tinchy Stryder are just some of the latest acts announced for this year's 'Animal Magic' themed Camp Bestival.
Camp Bestival's fancy dress theme for this year has also been announced as 'Animal Magic'. Festival organiser Rob da Bank, said, "I think only Camp Bestival could get away with such a riotously diverse set of line up additions: Will Young was a smash at Bestival last year dressed up to the nines in fancy dress so we had to get him back, Phoenix have made one of the best pop crossover albums of this year and I'm so proud to present them at Lulworth and Tinchy Strider is a star in the making and sure to have the kids... and me... bogling like crazy." "We've also picked the fancy dress theme for Camp Bestival 2009 ... Animal Magic! Read into that what you will... unicorns, bears, elephants, Scooby Doos, Johnny Morris look-alikes and Paul Daniels impersonators will all be very welcome to join our dressing up parade on Sunday afternoon. Roll on July!"
