Lindisfarne Festival

August 29-September 1, Beal Farm, Northumberland

A change at the top of Lindisfarne Festival (its founding father, Conleth Maenpaa passed it on to new owners after the 2023 event) will get its first run out at the end of August.

And by the look of the line-up, the much-loved event’s reputation for being the ‘ultimate end of summer party’ looks pretty safe.

Once again booked for one of the UK’s most stunning festival sites (overlooking Holy Island on the Northumberland coast), thousands are expected to set up camp for a weekend of solid good times.

Headliners: The Vaccines and Tom Walker (Friday); Orbital and De La Soul (Saturday)

Rest of the line-up highlights: Everything Everything, Kula Shaker, Lindisfarne, Colonel Mustard and the Dijon 5, The Showhawk Duo, 808 State and Elvana.
