This is the one by gate C, always good for a stop off, lots of fun

[buddiepaul]

Been in during the day before but may well pop in to see the night time entertainment.

Where by gate C? I can't see it on the map.

Love Rimski’s Yard.. spent a lot of Camp Bestival just messing about at Rimski’s with my 6 and 8 year old, playing golf with umbrellas, rearranging junk sculptures and making up nonsense games with random objects.. it’s like being at mad hatters tea party.. brilliant fun.

Im looking forward to visiting this area, sounds fab and I have heard Rimski himself is a top bloke.

I spent an evening drinking with some of the team behind it last year. You’re not wrong. As the Divine David once said “this is not an act, this is a state of being”. 🙂

I have to say all the Posters displaying the bands have been most excellent this year.     ( so far  )

We stumbled into this accidentally last year, several beers deep 

I think it was Pauls mobile disco (if there's two of them) but it was a brilliant hour or so of just really feel good crowd and music, absolutely loved it

I have never heard of this place so wiill have to investigate.  How do I find out more? When is it open?  

But I have seen Old Time Sailors a few times now and they are great fun so catch them if you can!  I think they're also at Croissant Neuf (off the top of my head).

Thanks, that sounds great (though I must admit to being slightly bemused!!).  I have been to T&C and the Astrolobe so must have almost been there but nothing sounds familiar.  I must spend some more time in those fields!  One year I spent a lot of time and didn't regret missing music for it at all.

You almost have to be leaving the site to see it as none of the paths naturally take you past it, it's right next to gate c

I've just watched a bit of the video on the page you linked - I'm definitely going to try to get there this year!  It looks great.

A thumbs up for Paul's Mobile Disco (we saw him at Bimble Bandada last year and he was very entertaining)

Well worth supporting this area. I know Ollie (Rimski), he's a good lad.

[morph100]

Good alternative to the south east corner after the headliners

I will do my up most best to pop along

It's well worth checking out Rimski's Yard. There really is nothing quite like it at the festival. Many of you will have seen Oli before playing his crazy bicycle mounted piano while dressed as a top hatted Victorian ragamuffin. 

He and Laura who run it are both lovely. 

I'll have an all new acoustic chair there this year.

Sas

don't know if you made it last year but last time we saw you at Boomtown, it was at the top of Old Town just past the Irish Bar. Properly good entertainment.

 

[Quark]

+1 for never having been aware of this!  Will check it out, sounds like fun 😄

[Fred Zepplin]

Is this the first time its had it's own poster? would explain why a lot of people haven't heard of it, including me
