Rob da Bank<\/strong> says: \u201cAhoy shipmates! Sadly it\u2019s now time to disembark the good ship HMS Bestival and pack up The Port till next year. Words fail us in the Bestival office as to how fantastic a crowd you guys were and what a spectacle you all made right across the weekend, so big up and respect to all of you. Thanks to Mother Nature for a nearly all sunny show and we hope you all enjoyed all the amazing live acts, DJs, films, comedians, walkabout and actors as much as we did. A vintage year for Bestival and we owe it to all of you. We’re off to wash our hair and think of a theme for Bestival 2014. Get ya thinking caps on!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Elton John\u2019s set was recorded live and is now available to buy with a share of proceeds from sales going to charity including the Isle of Wight Youth Trust<\/strong> which offers counselling, advice, information and support services to young people aged 25 and under on the Isle of Wight.<\/p>\n
