Camp Bestival: Jimmy Carr, Rufus Hound, Motormouth Michael Winslow And More

We had a great fill of live comedy acts at last weekend’s Isle of Arts festival, but we’re still looking forward to lineup at this summer’s Camp Bestival at Lulworth Castle. This in from Bestival HQ, in their own words. Ed

Rufus HoundWe totally love comedy at Camp Bestival and we’ve always made sure we’ve given you the best that the comedy circuit has to offer – this year is no exception!

We’ve got laughs aplenty for all ages in our side-splitting line-up of top drawer comics who will be joining our previously announced comedy headliner Jimmy Carr at Lulworth Castle this 26th-29th July.

Stellar line-up of comedians
For this one, Rob da Bank would like to introduce Camp Bestival comedy guru, Get Comedy’s Brett Vincent who says, “Once again Camp Bestival has a stellar line-up of comedians over the weekend, from some of the best emerging talent on the comedy circuit to famous TV names and the beat-boxing noise maker legend that is Michael Winslow.

“We’re also very proud to be the only music festival this year and possibly ever to host the biggest face in comedy (literally) Jimmy Carr. We also have dedicated comedy shows for kids with the best kid’s comedy show at the Edinburgh Festival last year -The Adventurers Club – and our now firmly rooted resident at Camp Bestival – Comedy Club 4 Kids.

“My top picks would be”¦ Benny Boot and Ian Stone on Friday, Rufus Hound hosting on Saturday, Andrew Maxwell followed by Early Edition and then Michael Winslow on the Sunday and of course Jimmy who is closing the Festival late Sunday night.”
