Festival Co-curators, Rob and Josie da Bank comment: “Every year our wellbeing offering steps up another notch and man does the world need it! Camp Bestival has always been about the holistic lifestyle from partying and dancing through to family time…and maybe rediscovering yourself as a human being as well as a busy parent or carer.
 
So 2026 has got it all: from deep massage, yoga and breathwork to mindful and meditative moments, soundbaths, exhilarating campsite runs and more specialist offerings like Qi Gong and event Toe-Ga (yoga for your feet!). New additions for 2026 include our friend Mama Shroom with her beautifully curated Food Is Medicine tent and Robby’s meditation teacher Jonni Pollard and his wife Carla DiMattina heading up some world class movement and meditation. And when you’re done with all of that goodness, jump in the sauna or a wood fired hot tub. See you in Slomo”
