Josie da Bank, festival curators of Camp Bestival said: “It feels particularly special to be introducing The Explorer’s Passport for Camp Bestival 2024. We wanted to introduce something creative and fun that will enable families and children to explore the landscapes of Lulworth Castle and Weston Park in true Camp Bestival fashion and record their own adventures, as well as participating in as many free activities as possible – it is very much a veritable dream ticket for all things curiosity. Robby and I are also extremely excited to be introducing a new area which will lend itself directly back to the Explorer’s Passport – Navigation Town and our team of Navigators. We couldn’t be happier that each family will now have a keepsake of their ultimate festival adventures that will be able to tell stories for years to come – this year is going to be amazing!”
