We can certainly help ensure that you have the perfect outfit for the Bestival festival!
'30,000 Freaks Under The Sea'
Taking a lead from legendary author Jules Verne’s classic tome '20,000 Leagues Under The Sea', Bestival have announced that they are taking it even deeper... 30,000 party people will be deep sea skiving in their bestest underwater fancy-dress garb at Robin Hill Country Park, Isle of Wight for this September’s multi-award winning Bestival.
We have some costume ideas that are perfect for this year's underwater theme as well as plenty of other options if you feel like going to the festival as something a little different.
Win a £50 Gift Voucher
If you want the chance of winning a £50 fancy dress gift voucher why not go to Bestival as a Blue Gnome (looks a lot like a festival Smurf to me!). Take a photo of yourself at the festival and send it in to us. More details on the Blue Gnomes on Holiday found here: Blue Gnomes on Holiday

More About Bestival
So what exactly is Bestival? In a nutshell, Bestival is an award winning 3 day boutique music festival which takes place every year at Robin Hill, a beautiful leafy country park near Downend and Newport in the heart of the Isle of Wight. It has won 'Best Medium-Sized Festival' at the UK Festival Awards for the last three years and we can't see a reason why it won't win again this year!
Most people who come to Bestival spend the weekend camping, which is probably the best way to experience the festival. Camping is not for everyone and so this year there will also be a Boutique Campsite where you can hire a Bestival Bivouac, Tipi, Yurt or PodPad and then relax in the comforts these afford. Other options include bringing you own Campervan to Bestival or staying at one of the many fantastic B&B's on the Isle of Wight

It is important to point out that Bestival isn’t just a music festival, it’s more than that, according to the organisers, it is "a 3-day wonderland of outlandish adventure and unparalleled escapism. Unlike any other festival experience around, the eye-catching adornments and magical mood throughout the fields of fun offer up endless pleasures, where fancy dress is the norm and tea and cake is always a good idea."
