LINE UP OF THE YEAR BELONGS TO STANDON! 🎉 Thank you to the UK Festival Awards for the honour, and thank YOU for being there with us to embrace it in all its glory! ❤️

Special shout to the main man Rob for working his magic and brewing a bill that brought so much joy to us all this year!

We can’t wait to show you what’s cooking for 2024 - more news on that in the New Year. 👀

Big love also to The Lottery Winners who put on an amazing show through the night! 🎉

As you may have heard, we've been nominated for awards at both the UK Festival Awards and The Live Awards! We're proud to champion diverse and exciting line ups across all stages each year, and in 2023 we repeated our feat from the previous year when we became the first major UK festival to showcase a 50/50 male/female & gender minority bill! 🎉 Read our interview with our artist booker Rob who spills ALL on how the magic comes together!

If you're a Standon Calling veteran or if you've ever found yourself mesmerised by our groovy posters, you might have noticed that we've had some absolute legends grace our stages way back when. ⭐️

It's not just luck - we hustle hard, devour heaps of tunes, and practically live at gigs to scout the coolest artists around. 😎 We proudly prop up emerging talents so you get a front-row seat to the best live music in the heart of Hertfordshire.
