county events
Throughout the year Cumbria hosts a great number of festivals and events for everyone to enjoy.
Music lovers flock here for the musical highlights of Kendal Calling, Solfest, the Maryport Blues Festival and the Summer Music Festival, among others. For those who enjoy the written word, then the Words by the Water festival in Keswick must not be missed.
Outdoor adventurers can enjoy the Keswick and Kendal Mountain
Festivals, while food lovers can sample a huge range of events celebrating Cumbrian food and drink.
There are walking festivals, torchlight carnivals, street arts, outdoor theatre and ‘fests' galore (Potfest, Mintfest, Woolfest, Printfest and Folkfest), combined with the all-time family favourites of agricultural shows, steam rallies, appledays, scarecrow competitions and various Lakes Alive events.
