Camp Bestival kicked off with a bang last night.
The festival has returned to the grounds of Lulworth Castle and promises an anniversary spectacular as is celebrates its 15th year.
Alongside top acts, including Eurovision runner-up Sam Ryder, X Factor star Ella Henderson, Grace Jones and Sophie Ellis Bextor, the event also promises a Red Devils Parachute Display, roller disco, extreme bike battle, Mr Motivator, Cosmic Kids Yoga and circus performers.
Thursday saw Cirque Bijou perform contemporary circus and street theatre plus a range of DJ sets.
Tonight will see Ella Henderson and Sophie Ellis Bextor at the Castle Stage before headliners The Kooks.
Festivalgoers can catch Goldie Lookin Chain, CMAT and Sam Tomkins at the Big Top before the chaos that is Bongo's Bingo.
