Here’s how you can still get into sold out Kendal Calling festival

A music festival popular with Prestonians in the summer has sold out.

Kendal Calling has seen 25,000 tickets shifted in record time for the four-day event in Lowther Deer Park.

Headlined by Franz Ferdinand, Stereophonics, Manic Street Preachers, Frank Turner and The Sleeping Souls along with one last chance to see Beach Boys legend Brian Wilson the festival is on for a bumper year.

Co-founder of the festival Ben Robinson said: “The team are truly humbled by the reaction to this years line up and we’d like to thank everyone who has bought tickets to make this our 12th successive sell out!

“We’ll be keeping our heads down over the next six months working hard to make this the best festival possible. We have a lot more amazing artists and field based antics still to announce so keep your eyes peeled. We can’t wait to see everyone in the fields.”

If you’ve missed out though there’s still a way in to the festival on Thursday 27 July to Sunday 30 July.

Inevitably some people who have bought tickets can’t go so tickets are returned.
