While its sister event Camp Bestival was beset by shocking weather a week previous that caused its final day to be cancelled, Bestival thankfully faced no such problems on what was a scorching weekend.

The line-up included a diverse mix of legends such as Chaka Khan and Grace Jones, alongside newer upstarts like Bad Sounds, Anteros and Whenyoung.

We captured a whole heap of images from across the four days of fun and frolics…
