BUSFEST ENTERTAINMENT

We have SO much going on at this year's festival! For a start this is the 30th year that we have been putting on a show at the Three Counties Show-ground. 30 Years! Where's that gone? Rest assured, we'll be celebrating in style with lots of exciting things for you to see and do.

Then there's the daytime entertainments (apart from the music stages) with attractions like JunkFish, ArtiKidz, Jamuna, Kenny The Clown, Angie's Animal Antics, and Busfest Games, to name but a few, and loads of exhibitions, static displays, demonstrations and more.

Of course, don't forget our massive SHOW & SHINE competition in the Display Arena - it's being upgraded for this year, so keep an eye out for our announcements!

Add in the amazing Jennings Funfair, and our well sought after CHILL ZONE & MAN CAVE, offering all your pampering delights, and you can see why we are the biggest, and best, VW Camper Van Festival in the World!

WALKABOUTS.

It wouldn't be the same without our crazy walkabouts, and so many of you just love what they do, so we welcome back our 'resident' makers of mirth: THE 2MEN who will be causing mayhem amongst you. ELTON WRONG & MUSICAL RUTH whizzing around on his/her mobile piano, and the very naughty CHALKIE THE CHIMP monkeying around.

BUSFEST ENTRTAINMENTS PAGE

MAIN ARENA.

We are very pleased to have the STUNTWORLD INTERNATIONAL STUNT TEAM staying with us over the three days. With some of the World's best professional riders doing breathtaking and death-defying stunts and a professional compère, this is one breathtaking show you must NOT miss as you go around the festival.

BUSFEST GAMES

We are looking for up to 10 teams or clubs to take part in these games which will take place in the Main Arena on the Saturday of the event. Its lots of fun folks please get in touch with us if you would like to take part in this.

SYNCRO ZONE

Also in the Main Arena, our unique SYNCRO OBSTACLE COURSE where you can watch these beasts (there's a theme coming out here – can you spot it??) strutting their stuff around our obstacle course. If that's not enough, over on the North side, next to Yellow Campsite, there is our SYNCRO TRIAL, where they get down and dirty on our specially prepared off-road time-trial course.
