CAMPER MARMALADE
The story goes...
In 2015, Tony, founder of Camper Marmalade/White VolksWagen T4 owner wished to immerse himself in the camper van community and attend more shows with his partner. However, without the means to attend said shows he instead arranged a small gathering with some friends at a local campsite. What Tony and company didn't realise, whilst huddled around their campfire, is that the trip they had embarked on would become "Camper Marmalade".
So where did the name come from? It's a simple tale, really. A fellow camper produced a homemade jar of marmalade to be enjoyed with their toast. Hence forth their gathering was dubbed Camper Marmalade.
Fast forward to 2022. Feastival Events, an events organiser based in Eastbourne, the neighbouring town of Polegate where Camper Marmalade takes place, understood the potential of the event and acquired it to ensure it's growth and longevity. Feastival Events focuses on creating family-friendly experiences centred around entertainment, music, arts, food, the outdoors and, above all, creating community!
Camper Marmalade is now a ticketed event which opens the doors to offering a wide variety of attractions including a plethora cultural food vendors, live music and family activities including the Marma-Lympics, a trade village and a large kid's zone.
This event is dedicated to celebrating the passion of camper vans, particularly Volkswagen and other vehicle conversion camper communities. The goal is to bring like-minded people together to share their love for these unique vehicles, provide opportunities for attendees to learn from each other and to enjoy the many attractions of the event.
Camper Marmalade is committed to creating an open, warm, and welcoming environment for everyone regardless of their background or experience level with camper vans.
