About Us
This summer, Mendip Basecamp is launching Mendip Mini Fests - six relaxed, family-friendly festival weekends, exclusively for campers. Set in an award-winning adventure campsite in the Mendip Hills, just 20 minutes from Weston-super-Mare, guests can enjoy off-grid camping, campfires, and woodland adventures. Guests also have access to 20+ outdoor activities at Mendip Activity Centre, from climbing and archery to skiing and paddleboarding.
Across the weekends Mendip Basecamp will offer outdoor workshops, circus skills, children's storytelling, live acoustic music, and Sunday morning yoga, with Saturday nights bringing the Bandwagon stage to life with headline local bands.
On Friday 31st July South West-based Sam Evans will bring uplifting soul, folk, and pop sounds for a warm, feel-good performance. No stranger to the stage, Sam has over 1,000 live performances to his name, and has played on the BBC Introducing set at Glastonbury. On Saturday 1st August, Aardvarks, formerly known as Razzomo, will take over with their high-energy world-folk fusion performance, delivering a lively headline set guaranteed to get the crowd moving.
