The schools have broken up for the summer which means only one thing – it’s time for Camp Bestival!
Camp Bestival is a family friendly music and performing arts festival at Lulworth Castle in Dorset. Every year the Festival boasts an incredible lineup of live music artists, child friendly DJ sets, interactive performances and much more.
Cirque Bijou have been a part of Camp Bestival for over ten years and we are back for 2025.
Navigation Town
Cirque Bijou have our own immersive area of the festival called Navigation Town. This is a place of exploration, circus performance, quirky live music and fun characters.
Our Camp Bestival Navigators will be teaching you the wonders of our small and vibrant town. The Navigators are interactive characters and street performers, based on real and imagined explorers, who all have some very special talents and skills. From magic tricks to acrobatics you can count on them to always have something up their sleeve.
Grab your Navigation Town Passport and collect stamps from the various performers. These little books are a wonderful keepsake for kids to show friends and family what they have seen over the weekend.
Each morning Navigation Town will kick off with our opening ceremony where we introduce all of our spectacular performers. Get to know them, and then come and find them throughout the day.
We are so excited to be back at Camp Bestival for what will be another unforgettable weekend!
Cirque Bijou love family festivals…
Back in May we had the joy of curating the entertainment for The Big Bahooey at Hampton Court Palace, and we’ve just had another busy weekend at Bristol Harbourfest.
