Standon Calling is a boutique music festival set in the beautiful Hertfordshire countryside.
Celebrating its very special 17th Birthday in 2023, the festival has come a long way since its birthday garden party beginnings. Festival organisers know how to put on a festival and they are very proud of our wonderful audience who come back year-after-year.
Across four fun-filled days you’ll hear music from the acts you love and the very best in emerging talent. Savour incredible food, dance until the early hours, enjoy an abundance of family activities, lounge by the pool, luxuriate in a hot tub, relax with a massage, take in top comedy, be inspired by a talk, or learn something new at a workshop. Plus, prepare to be charmed by the annual Dog Show, show off your creative flair in a bid to win the coveted best fancy dress prize, and much, much more.
If you haven’t experienced Standon Calling, get ready to have A LOT of fun among the friendliest festival crowd in the land.

The Lordship includes the remains of an early Tudor mansion, built in 1546. It had a central courtyard. All was pulled down except the west wing and half the south wing. In the west wing was the main entrance, in the south wing the Hall. The carriageway with its four-centred arch remains and the flanking turrets on the east. On the west only stumps. The NW angle turret of the range has been reconstructed on the old foundations. The S. part of the W. wing has several gables and an outer chimney. The interior is entirely remodelled, and a new wing to the E. of the S end was erected about 1925 after a fire had burnt the Victorian living quarters
