Zippos Circus and Boutique Babysitting to join Camp Bestival 2010

Camp Bestival Festival

As Camp Bestival grows more extravagant in its spectacles, they’re also thinking of the practical – a winning combination, quite literally in fact, given that it won Best Family Festival in last year's UK Festivals awards.

Hot off the grapevine is the news that the 250-year-old Zippos Circus has confirmed that it'll be entertaining Camp Bestivallers at this year’s festival with trapeze acts, clowns, acrobatics, and many more troupe-tastic treats. There'll be 12 shows spread across the weekend and tickets are £7.50.

Giving parents a break from their brood is Boutique Babysitting, providing their experienced “Kids Under Canvas Service”. This is a service offering fully qualified, CRB-checked childcare professionals to look after your little ones, set in a secure, fenced off tipi-camp. Four-hour babysitting sessions are available and will occupy the kids with magical music-based activities or by simply kicking a ball around.
