We’re excited to be part of Kendal Music Festival, a free celebration of local music, culture and community taking place across Kendal.
Organised by Kendal BID, the festival brings together talented musicians and artists from Kendal and the surrounding area, showcasing local talent while supporting the town’s venues and businesses.
Join us at Brewery Arts for live music, great food and refreshing drinks as we celebrate the brilliant music scene right here in the heart of Kendal.
Our Friday programme will take place in the Brewery Arts Bar, with live music throughout the day. On Saturday, we’ll be heading outside into our Garden, with the Malt Room providing an indoor alternative should the weather take a turn.
Soak up the atmosphere, discover some fantastic local artists and enjoy a drink or a bite to eat while you’re here. Food and drinks will be available to purchase throughout the festival.
