Joining a music line-up that so far includes headliners Simple Minds, Rick Astley & Clean Bandit, with DJs and live acts Sara Cox, Shed Seven, Tokio Myers, Declan McKenna, dodie and many, many more, Camp Bestival, at Lulworth Castle, Dorset from Thursday 27th to Sunday 30th July now reveals it'll have comic capers from Sean Lock, Dave Johns, and Andrew Maxwell.

Rob da Bank said: “We’ve got some very special comedians joining Camp Bestival’s voyage of merriment this year. Sean Lock has been someone we’ve wanted to bring onboard for ages, he’s ridiculously funny and you never know you might have spoken to him on Net Mums. Dave Johns is a Geordie delight and Andrew Maxwell is one of our all-time favourites, so it’s gonna be a rip-roarer on Sunday in the Big Top. But don’t forget, there’s plenty of laughs and loads of fun for everyone all around Lulworth Castle all weekend long, so do come along and explore”.

Headlining the comedy in the Big top on Sunday afternoon, Sean Lock said: “Really looking forward to Camp Bestival - I’ve bought some GPS tags for the kids and can’t wait for two days of peace, whilst they run around a huge field trying not to get in trouble”

Commenting on his comedy turn on Sunday at Camp Bestival, Dave Johns said: “I absolutely love Camp Bestival and my kids are over the moon that we’re heading back this year. Is there a better way to spend your end of July than lording it up next to a castle on the Jurassic Coast! I think not!”

In anticipation of his return to Camp Bestival, Andrew Maxwell said: “I’ll be bringing the kids as always. It’s definitely one of the highlights of their year (and mine!)”

There's also family fun and shows over the weekend from CB legend Mr Tumble, and mainstage tearaways Dick and Dom, to spectaculars from Dinosaur World Live, Matthew Bourne’s New Adventures, the Pirates of Penzance and more.
