According to the road map out of lockdown, the Government hopes to lift all remaining restrictions on social contact in England by June 21 at the earliest.This would mean larger events can go ahead and nightclubs can finally reopen.
Glastonbury, the UK’s biggest music festival, has been cancelled for a second successive year.
Speaking about the return of Kendal Calling, festival co-founders Andy Smith and Ben Robinson said: “It’s a great feeling to be able to announce the return of Kendal Calling in 2021. Not being able to celebrate together in the fields last year has only heightened anticipation for our return this July with a line-up that truly captures what Kendal Calling is all about.”
