Kendal Calling has just added over 50 acts to its already impressive 2024 lineup. From beloved stars to exciting newcomers, this year's festival promises an unforgettable experience for all music lovers.

Added to the pack are renowned artists like Lucy Spraggan, whose much-anticipated comeback album last August was well received. Joining her are rising stars like Charlotte Plank, whose collaborations with Rudimental and Turno have earned her nods from industry giants like Zane Lowe. And let's not forget chart-toppers like Sugababes, Feeder, and The Snuts who are ready to ignite the stage with their electrifying performances.

But the excitement doesn't stop there. Prepare to be blown away by the raw energy of British youth counterculture rockers Bilk, the infectious beats of Midas Touch hitmaker ADMT, and the soul-stirring sounds of Alfie Jukes, fresh off the release of his latest single "Eyes Wide" in January. And keep your eyes peeled for Future Utopia and the teen punk powerhouse HotWax, set to deliver adrenaline-fueled sets that will leave you breathless.

The festival's famed main stage will be ablaze with performances from legends like Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Paolo Nutini, The Streets, Paul Heaton with guest singer Rianne Downey, and Keane. And that's just the tip of the iceberg! With hundreds of other artists spanning various genres, from indie to rock, pop to electronic, there's something for every musical palate.

But Kendal Calling isn't just about the music; it's a full-blown sensory adventure. Step into the legendary Tim Peaks Diner, where you'll find not only legendary sets but also the best coffee around. This year, Tim Peaks pulls out all the stops with a lineup bigger and better than ever. From secret sets to live performances, there's magic around every corner.

And don't miss the music discovery stage Calling Out, where the stars of tomorrow shine bright. With headliners like Sundara Karma, The K's, and Peace, joined by latest additions like Benjamin Francis Leftwich and ADMT, this is where you'll discover your new favourite band before they hit the big time.

Immerse yourself in the soul-stirring beats of Chai Wallahs, showcasing diverse sounds from across the globe. From the acclaimed 8-piece soul/funk ensemble Tom McGuire & The Brassholes to the electrifying reggae beats of Omega Nebula, prepare to be transported on a musical journey like no other.

And let's not forget the riotous fun of The Soapbox, home to uproarious comedy acts and wild entertainment for all ages. From the UK's rip-roaring stand-up comics to the wild and wonderful spectacle of Drag Bingo, there's something for everyone's sense of humour.

With over four days of non-stop action and an expected forty thousand festival-goers descending upon the fields, Kendal Calling is set to transform into Cumbria's third-largest town once again. It's the ultimate festival gathering, filled with otherworldly entertainment and escapism for all ages.
