Aidan from Bestival HQ has this news in relation to the Ryde Slide. Ed
With just three days to go and more slots to slide than ever before, we’ve still got some places left for this Sunday’s epic Bestival Ryde Slide.
Everyone who entered the lottery already has their slot confirmed, so you can guarantee your slide by donating £5 now or pay £10 per slide or £30 for a family of four on the day*.
The forecast for Sunday is sunshine and fun and to add even more excitement, the fastest slider will win a pair of Bestival tickets, so what are you waiting for?
All donations go to local charities: Aspire, Inshore Rescue, Wight Brainy Bunch, Ryde Arena and The Waterside Trust.
Fancy dress

And to top it all off, there will be a Bestival Soundsystem with DJs including Rob da Bank to keep the party atmosphere going all day long!
