WELCOMING FESTIVAL GOERS OF ALL AGES AND ALL WALKS OF LIFE TO THE FIELDS EACH SUMMER IS PART OF WHAT MAKES kENDAL CALLING SO BRILLIANT! WHETHER IT’S THE LITTLE ONES FIRST FESTIVAL OR YOUR KIDS HAVE BECOME SEASONED FESTIVAl fans, we’ve got plenty for everyone here in the fields.
kids calling!
- A devoted area for the next generation of Kendal Callers! Kids Calling provides something for all ages – from craft workshops, to live theatre shows, to giant inflatables!
- Kids Calling is all about crafting those core memories for your little ones, creating those moments they remember for years to come – drop in as you like throughout the day and there will always be plenty to keep kids of all ages entertained!
- This is also a place for Mum and Dad to relax a little, let the kids run wild in this wonderous playground while you take a moment to relax and unwind with a coffee – no better way to kick off the day!
all round entertainment!
- Each year Kendal Calling boasts a huge line up of some of the best artists in the world! Previous years have seen The 1975, Mumford and Sons, Courteeners, Blondie, Bastille & more head to Lowther – who knows what’s in store for 2023?!
- Kendal is all about exploring! With over 13 different stages and drinking holes across the site, there is always somewhere new to discover – from Tim Burgess’ tavern, Tim Peaks Diner to the 70s wonderland of the Desert Island Disco!
- Fancy some cabaret? Head to the Soapbox! One minute you’re having your mind blown by maestros of magic, the next you’ve got Mock The Week’s finest having you nearly keel over with laughter – when there isn’t a band you want to see, The Soapbox makes the perfect stop off!
wander lost eden
- The jewel in Kendal Calling’s crown, Lost Eden is an area with creativity and escapism at its core. Explore your own artistic flair this July as we venture back into the woods for another round of the weird and wonderful…
- By day you’ll find mesmerising art installations and jaw dropping attractions spread across 20 acres of idyllic forest, including our iconic photo-realistic Earth, ethereally suspended from trees.
- By night, Lost Eden transforms into an entirely different cornucopia of curiosity, as fire gardens and light installations including The Twist (a winding wheel of LEDs, perfect for that Instagram moment!) guide you through our rabbit hole of wonders.

camping!
Kendal Calling has a devoted family camping area located a 10 minute walk away from the arena – this is located in General Camping which is included with your weekend ticket! Family camping is generally a much quieter campsite where you can be located around other families and is nicely tucked away from the late night party animals.
That said, there are other options including Emperors Field and Great Plains, our premium campsites which offer family friendly atmospheres but with added upgrades such as access to hot showers, a dedicated arena entrance and complimentary parking. Emperors Field is now sold out for 2023 but Great Plains is still on sale. Find our more info here.
Of course, we also offer a number of fantastic Glamping options in our Deer Lodge campsite – if you don’t quite fancy a regular weekend of camping and prefer those few home comforts, then take a look and explore our extensive range of options here.
