Dreamland in Margate to host Camp Bestival Easter party

One of the UK's biggest family festivals is bringing fun and performances to the Kent coast this Easter.

Dreamland, in Margate, is welcoming back Camp Bestival for a programme of events including live music, game shows and family films.

The event, dubbed The Camp Bestival Takeover, will see more than a fortnight of events, including the Camp Bestival Easter Party on Easter Sunday, April 12.

The Easter bash will include performances from the Circus Raj team, who will be showing off their skills and tricks throughout the park.

Festival art workshops will also be popping up across the two weeks, where budding artists can come and practice their creative talents with other like-minded people.

Entry is free for the Easter party, but to ride attractions, visitors need purchase wristbands when they arrive at the park, or save 25% by purchasing tickets online in advance.

The line up for the rest of the Easter Party has yet to be announced, but last year the day hosted the likes of The Cuban Brothers, Dat Brass and a DJ set from festival organiser Rob Da Bank.

Camp Bestival has been named Best Family Festival at the UK Festival Awards five times and is held at the end of July on the Dorset coast.

The line-up for the Dorset festival this year includes the likes of Friendly Fires, Liam Payne and Fatboy Slim.
