Standon Calling festival opens its gates today!

The festival will be open from midday, Thursday 27th July, for its twelfth year in a row and includes headline acts such as Orbital, Clean Bandit and Grace Jones.

The Hertfordshire based independent festival will be open from midday today running through to Sunday 30th July. It's located 30 miles from Cambridgeshire, which will take you about a 50 minute drive by car. Trains are also running with Ware and Bishop Stortford stations being closest to the festival. 

In addition to headline acts including Orbital, Clean Bandit and Graces Jones, you can see other performances from the likes of Gary Numan, Slaves, Nothing But Thieves, KT Tunstall and Jax Jones to name just a few.

It's not all about the music though. A swimming pool, hot tubs, comedy tents and costume parades will also be happening at the event so there will be lots to keep you entertained over the weekend!

Final Tier tickets are still available online if you haven't purchased yours yet...but hurry because they're selling out fast!
