Rob and Josie Da Bank's Lulworth Castle extravaganza is one of the family friendly highlight of the summer. Perfectly catering for the wants and needs of all ages, Camp Bestival has asserted itself as the gold standard for countless families across the country.

With so many activities, workshops, shows, and of course artists hooked in for the festival on July 30th - August 1st, we've gone ahead and selected five of the most unmissable from across the weekend. Oh and if this happens to be your first visit to the festival, head here to check out our Virgin's Guide to Camp Bestival.

Underworld

Surely one of the most treasured dance acts in UK history, Karl Hyde and Rick Smith have been balancing pounding underground techno tropes with almost pop hooks in a way that no-one else has even come close to pulling off. If there's one act to get your rave on to at Camp Bestival it's these guys. Check out their set at Sea Dance last year above.

David Rodigan Mbe Presents Ram

So not strictly one act, but this might be one of the most exciting Ram Jam's David Rodigan has lined up yet. Enlisting the turntable devilry of DJ Yoda, the dubwise vibes of Prince Fatty (watch him in action above), the super fresh dance floor know how of Artwork and the riotuous live presence of Venum sound, this particular Ram Jam will have the entire field bouncing.

Dick & Dom Go Wild In The Ring

If you are bringing your family to Camp Bestival, you'd be daft to miss out on the brilliant childish shenanigans of comic duo Dick and Dom. With the entertainment value turned up to the max and the laughs coming thick and fast, the CBBC anchors will have your kids hooked to finish - even the parents won't be able to resist their unique charm. Watch one of their classic sketches above. 

Ella Eyre

As one of the most distinctive voices in pop at the moment, Ella Eyre has continued to shine brightly since bursting onto the scene with 'Waiting All Night' back in 2013 alongside Rudimental. Since then she's continued to assert herself as both a talented and charismatic performer, with subsequent singles storming the charts. Watch her intimate performance of 'Deeper' above.

Alison Moyet

It might be a number of years since Alison Moyet was dominating the charts with her beautiful dulcet tones, but she's still got the same presence and delivery that made her a star all those years ago. With so many enormous tunes in her back catalogue, her performance is sure to be a stunning nostalgic journey from one of the greatest voices from the electronic pop explosion. Watch her mesmerising delivery of 'Only You' above.
