Kendal Calling founder Andy Smith comments on the 10^th anniversary celebrations

Since its humble beginnings as an teensy-eensy one and a half stage festival held in the grounds of a town centre art gallery back in 2006 to its current home spread across the stunning 300 acre Lowther Deer Park, home to our 12 stages (and more to come), it’s been an incredible journey. I think it’s fair to say this year’s line-up is going to take some beating though with an expanded festival seeing 5 headliners over 4 days and an eclectic spread across all stages, but the real beauty is in the atmosphere of the audience and that's what it's really about at Kendal’.

Kendal Calling is set in the stunning surrounds of the Lake District, in addition to the music it has arts installations, gourmet food, kid’s entertainment and a real ale festival.
