24 - 27 August 2023
We will be a sea of SUNSHINE on Friday when we’re all in yellow!
Whether you’re dressed as a Simpson or you’re a soul full of radiant energy, there will be yellow, brightness and happiness wherever you go. Your finest yellow garments are required on Friday, and hopefully the sky will reflect the crowd! Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
Saturday is competition day and the theme is Mardi Gras! We will create our very own Rio Carnival in the Carnival field where, in the Chaos Corner tent at 5pm, outfits will be judged and prizes will be given! Show us your best interpretation of the theme!
The main event, however, will be our Mardi Gras parade. After the competition, the BoomDang drummers will lead us through Carnival field and the festival grounds for all to see and join in! Beads and feathers galore, parrots and rhinestone masks, purple, yellow, green and glitter wherever you look. Saturday at Camper Calling will have never looked so fabulous!
TIGHT, BRIGHT NEON LIGHTS
Hello Friday night RAVERS! Your Friday theme is ‘Tight, Bright Neon Lights’. Think 90s rave with 80s fashion. The bigger, the bolder, the better. Night will fall, the DJs will take charge and your UV paint will illuminate the dance floor. Glow sticks at the ready, kiddos.
INTO THE JUNGLE
As the Ministry of Sound would say, Jungle. Is. Massive! Are you an explorer lost in the wilderness? Your favourite wild animal? Or a tropical palm looking absolutely fabulous in the sunshine? Fun for all the family. We can’t wait to see all you cool cats ‘n’ kittens in your Jungle attire!
SEA CREATURES AND MUSICAL FEATURES
It’s competition time and we want to see you get creative with this theme! From a Little Mermaid scene to the Spice Girls… a Saxophone-playing Octopus… an accordion-wearing Crab… the more inventive and crazily-interpreted, the better! At 12pm in the Chaos Corner tent, ringmaster Gacko will be ready to judge your fabulous attire! Prizes to be won!
We're not telling Little Lies, the magical Fleetwood Bac join us Sunday night!
You can go your own way, but you’d be silly to miss the one and only Fleetwood Bac! Endorsed by Mick Fleetwood himself, these guys have the sound, the look, the mystical atmosphere and that all important on-stage chemistry!
Regarded as the UK’s most authentic Fleetwood Mac Tribute show, it's one not to miss on Sunday night at Camper Calling.
Having toured with the likes of Mos Def and Bonobo and performed at Glastonbury and Bestival, to name but a few, Lazy habits offer up brass-fueled soulful hip-hop stories.
“The best house party your parents never wanted you to have.”
“One of the most exciting acts to come out of London in some time.”
The London seven-piece describe their sound as “beats, rhymes and brass of the highest calibre”, and it’s easy to hear that confidence ooze from the pores of their self-titled debut album. Their onstage energy is contagious and will stay with you long after they’ve left the stage, and it’s this bombastic energy that has seen their music championed by UK tastemakers such as Huw Stephens, Joss Stone, Ghostpoet and a host of BBC Radio DJs.
It’s hip hop, Jim; But not as we know it…
“They nod to big band jazz, soul and bop while MC Lazy spits classic UK hip-hop patterns dripping with clever rhymes...lyrically, they’re edgy and relevant.”
Hailing from Bracknell, Berkshire via Indiana, The Hoosiers have been purveyors of some of the finest vintage indie pop for the last decade.
Following the release of their 2007 chart-topping debut album The Trick To Life, which included the massive singles “Goodbye Mr. A” and “Worried About Ray”, their sound has evolved. That bombastic pop has matured into something more electronic and synthetic, but ultimately just as enjoyable.
With influences ranging from The Cure, The Flaming Lips and Giorgio Moroder, you can rest assured that their eclectic earworms will get you on your feet.
