Kendal Calling announces its five headline acts

Hailed as ‘the mini-Glastonbury of the North’, Kendal Calling is back in the fields this summer and today shares an enormous first drop of acts for 2024.

This includes five huge headliners, plus over 120 world-class acts set to entertain and delight in August.

Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Paolo Nutini, The Streets, Paul Heaton with guest singer Rianne Downey, and Keane top the line-up, headlining Kendal Calling.

Plus, droves of unmissable acts, fun for all ages and unrivalled entertainment for another unforgettable summer in the fields of Lowther Deer Park. Set in the beautiful Lake District, Kendal Calling will take place from August 1-4, 2024.

Tickets for Kendal Calling went on sale last August, with fans snapping them up in record breaking time. With demand at an all-time-high and over 60% of tickets sold so far, fans are urged to get theirs in Friday’s pre-sale to avoid missing out, this will be followed by general on sale on Monday.

Tickets will be available at www.kendalcalling.co.uk.

Andy Smith, Kendal Calling co-founder said, “After the week we have had, bring on the summer! It is with much joy and excitement we share with you today the biggest Kendal Calling lineup to date.

“From the incredible Paolo Nutini closing the Sunday night and Keane, Sugababes, Paul Heaton & Rianne Downey and Katy B gracing our fields for the first time, joined by old friends Noel Gallagher and his High Flying Birds and The Streets closing the Friday and Saturday night respectively, we have the perfect ingredients for a fantastically celebratory weekend. But as ever the most important ingredient is YOU – and we can’t to see you in the fields.”

Each year, Kendal Calling transforms Lowther Deer Park into a visual and auditory spectacle, from the wonders of the annual carnival parade, which features a mind boggling procession of over 200 participants from across Cumbria, to the incredible artwork that surrounds every stage and corner of the woodlands.
