A music festival has banned revellers using camping stoves at their tents and disposable barbecues anywhere on site due to the hot weather and “dry ground conditions” expected this weekend.

Camp Bestival, which takes place from Thursday to Sunday at Lulworth Castle near the Jurassic Coast in Dorset, has instead introduced campsite cooking areas and free access to hot water.

Organisers said they were working with Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service “to keep everyone safe”. Fireworks, flares, sparklers, lanterns and smoke canisters are among banned items., external

There have been several wildfires in the region this summer because of the hot, dry weather. A drought was also declared on Wednesday.

On 17 July, part of the Rustic Stomp festival near Wareham, Dorset, was destroyed by a fire that started when a camping stove set fire to a tent. An area of heathland measuring 100m (330ft) by 40m (130ft) was destroyed.
