As much as we're very much in denial, festival season is coming to an end. And this year has been an absolute blast.
heatworld most recently went to Bestival in Lulworth Cove, Dorset, courtesy of Drivy - and we can confirm it was absolutely lit.
Here are all the reasons why you really should have been there:

1 of 6We travelled in style
Everyone knows the (only) bad thing about festivals is the absolute ordeal of having to queue for hours on end to get a bus or train home after three days of partying and very little sleep. So this year we travelled there using Drivy, an app that's essentially like Airbnb – but for car renting. And we really couldn't recommend it enough. All you have to do is sign up to the app, and it will locate a nearby Drivy car for you to use. After you've confirmed what time and for how long you'll be renting, you are then able to unlock the car using your smartphone. And you'll feel extremely smug seeing all the other festivalgoers head to the train station after it's all over.
2 of 6The line-up was LIT
It was all about girl power this year – with a line-up featuring the likes of MIA, London Grammar and Grace Jones.
3 of 6The location couldn’t have been more ideal
Gone are the days when going to Bestival means traipsing all the way to the Isle Of Wight and having to endure a hungover ferry trip back. The festival now takes place in Dorset, which is not only straight forward to travel to, but scenic AF.
4 of 6The weather was frankly INSANE
This year's Bestival took place literally just before the mega heatwave ended, and there wasn't even a cloud in sight, let alone a drop of rain.
5 of 6The stages were just INSANE
It's a bold statement, but we're saying Bestival has the best stages of any other festival ever. Aside from the extremely aesthetically pleasing Temple stage, there was HMS Bestival, an actual boat.
6 of 6It had a circus theme
By far one of the best aspects about Bestival is that it encourages people to dress up in line with a theme each year. This year's was circus, and everyone went all out.
Bestival took place from 2 - 5 August at Lulworth Estate, Dorset. heatworld travelled to Bestival using Drivy. See their website for more information.
