Josie da Bank

Josie da Bank is an artist, illustrator and co-founder of the UK’s most acclaimed family festival, Camp Bestival. She is best known for her unique artistic style – think post-acid house meets hippy. She has designed sleeves for her husband Rob’s Snday Best Recordings compilations, curated one of Shoreditch’s first stylish bars, Cocomo, and produced two of the best-loved festivals of this century – Bestival and Camp Bestival. Oh, and not forgetting the small matter of raising four sons.

Her recent projects include designing bars and restaurants on the Isle of Wight, one of the few benefits of taking an enforced break from the event industry during the pandemic. Josie and Rob have also established Slow Motion Wellness – a site with luxury accommodation for cold water therapy retreats, meditation workshops, yoga (which Josie sometimes teaches) and more.
