Kendal Calling returns to Lowther Deer Park from Thursday 29 July to Sunday 1 August 2027 for the festival’s 22nd edition. The four-day outdoor festival brings music, arts, comedy, food, camping and family entertainment to the fields near Penrith. The 2027 line-up had not been announced when this listing was checked. Tickets Limited tickets go on sale at 10am on Thursday 6 August 2026 through See Tickets. The organiser says payment plans will be available across all ticket types, spreading payments over ten months. Weekend tickets and upgrades including Live-In Vehicles, Emperors Fields, Great Plains, Tangerine Fields and Deer Lodge are due to be released. High demand is expected.

The published festival dates include Thursday 29 July, but check the exact entry conditions attached to each 2027 ticket type before booking. Line-up and entertainment The 2027 line-up is still to be announced. Kendal Calling is known for a broad programme combining live music with comedy, food and drink, family entertainment, themed areas and late-night experiences. Only confirmed 2027 performers should be added to this listing when the official line-up is released. Family and age guidance All ages are welcome, but every attendee needs the correct ticket for their age when the festival begins. Current festival guidance says anyone aged 11 to 15 must attend with a ticket-holding parent or guardian aged 21 or over. Each adult may accompany up to two children. Ages 16 and 17 may attend without an adult but should carry proof of age. Children aged 10 and under must also attend with a parent or guardian aged 21 or over. Pets are not permitted. Registered assistance dogs are welcome, subject to the organiser’s accessibility arrangements. Location, travel and camping Kendal Calling takes place at Lowther Deer Park, Hackthorpe, near Penrith, Cumbria, CA10 2HT. Despite the festival name, the site is closer to Penrith than Kendal. Penrith North Lakes is the nearest railway station. The festival normally operates a dedicated shuttle between the station and the site, but exact 2027 times and fares had not been released when this listing was prepared. Drivers should buy the correct parking pass for their campsite or accommodation and follow temporary festival signs on approach. Different camping upgrades use different gates and car parks, so do not rely only on the postcode or sat-nav directions. Accessibility and site conditions Lowther Deer Park is an outdoor site with hills, grass and uneven natural terrain. Wet weather can create mud and make routes more difficult. The organiser provides accessibility facilities and uses an application process for some support, including essential companion tickets, accessible camping and viewing areas. The 2027 accessibility application timetable had not yet been published. Anyone with access requirements should read the current official guidance before purchasing additional tickets or travel products. Daily opening times, the full line-up, ticket prices, transport schedules, campsite arrangements and detailed 2027 access information remain subject to confirmation. Check the official Kendal Calling website and booking page before purchasing or travelling.
