Madness at Camp Bestival

With those cold winter evenings getting longer by the day, the organisers of the Family Festival Award-winning Camp Bestival have brought the summer just a little bit closer with the announcement that Madness, Human League, George Clinton and Calvin Harris are just some of the names set to appear at next year's festival.

Scheduled to coincide with the first week of the summer holidays - that'll be July 30 to Aug. 01 2010 - the family-friendly Camp Bestival will return once again to the salubrious environs of Lulworth Castle in Dorset.

Speaking of their slot, Madness said: "We love nothing more then a good old family knees up and if we get anywhere near the reception we got at Bestival in 2007 we'll feel like kings of Lulworth Castle."

Also set to appear are legendary reggae producer Lee 'Scratch' Perry and Mancunian legends the Fall while The KLF's Bill Drummond brings his the 17 project for a UK exclusive giving 10 groups of 17 people the chance to become a member of his choir and record his upcoming score live at the festival.

Adult tickets, priced £145, are on sale now.
