NEXT MAJOR LINE UP ANNOUNCEMENT SET FOR 20TH APRIL


The tour de force of large-scale performance art and theatre that is FREAKEASY will be in full effect onsite on the eve of Kendal Calling, a jaw-dropping exclusive for Kendal Calling & for the Lake District. Just 1500 tickets are available for the Freakeasy show so revellers can kick off the weekend a day early and enjoy no queues, first pick of camping & a full evening of all-encompassing parties. Highly skilled circus and side show performers are part of Freakeasy to complete a multi medium feast for the senses as well as the feet.

Freakeasy features the world’s tallest DJ, cabaret & the garden of the paranormal. Amazing, jaw dropping installations like the gramo lantern: a massive gramophone with the horn as a projection screen and a walk-in Victorian parlour underneath. Plus a mobile piano street show, sword swallowing Guinness World record holder Space Cowboy plus angle grinding, hoop twirling & fire-laced spectacular to start the night with a bang!

Europe’s biggest solar powered stage Croissant Neuf will host a cavalcade of live bands, DJ’s and sideshow troubadours all tied together by master of ceremonies, Don Francisco (compere to Lost Vagueness, Trash City, Arcadia and his very own Invisible Circus.)

So roll up roll up, this ground breaking show manifests for one night only – Kendal Calling beckons!

PRESS QUOTES

"The real draw of Kendal Calling though, is the backdrop. A truly stunning landscape surrounds the campsite, rolling green fields give way to craggy rock outcrops, the odd mountain, copses of luscious green trees and reams of shaggy bright grass. It’s a world away from literally anywhere...which means Kendal Calling can double as an actual holiday. Bonus." - Clashmusic.co.uk

"The way the organisers took the hassle out of the festival-going was another big plus-point... The festival reminded me of a smaller version of Glastonbury – it catered for every age group... Overall the organisation and atmosphere was great. This festival is a goer, and it's one I’ll be heading to next year"- Manchester Confidential

"The site was charming, just the perfect size ... Present festivals also seem to place a lot of emphasis on how to keep the masses entertained and this one truly excelled. Would I go again? Definitely – it has great potential and isn’t just about the music, all for a fair price" - SafeConcerts.co.uk
