As a thank you for selling out Kendal Calling 2025 just THREE WEEKS after the first wave line-up dropped, organisers have decided to bring the Christmas presents early! From indie anthems to drum and bass classics, 6Music favourites to incredible singer-songwriters – as it’s the 12 days of Christmas, it’s only right that there are 12 new artists joining the Kendal Calling bill over the next two weeks!

First up, it’s a firm Kendal Calling favourite. Manchester’s own Corella will be heading to the fields for Kendal’s Thursday night party. Serving up infectious melodies and a signature summery sound which is distinctly their own, Corella are fast becoming one of the UK’s most talked about indie acts. Hot on the heels of their 2024 debut album ‘Once Upon A Weekend’ and having dropped their latest single ‘Live From New Century’ in October, Corella are a force to be reckoned with. With summer-soaked indie goodness, Corella are not to be missed at Kendal Calling 2025.

Fans are urged to keep their eyes on Kendal Calling’s Instagram for the daily artist reveals.

The Kendal Calling 2025 line up is already stacked, as the festival prepares to ring in its 20th birthday in style. Headliners Courteeners, Fatboy Slim, The Prodigy and Kaiser Chiefs are joined by other huge names including The Last Dinner Party, Travis, The Wombats, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls, Jason Manford, The K’s, Skindred, Corinne Bailey Rae, The Lottery Winners, Maximo Park, Scouting For Girls, Tim Burgess … the list goes on.

Although the festival is now sold out, fans who may have missed out are encouraged to keep an eye on Kendal Calling’s official resale partner Tixel. Set in Lowther Deer Park in the beautiful Lake District, Kendal Calling will take place from 31 July – 3 August 2025.
