Festival Information
North East
Overview
Lindisfarne Festival is an independent, adult-only music and creative arts festival held at Beal Farm on the Northumberland coast, overlooking Holy Island. Founded in 2015, it has grown into a multi-day end-of-summer event known for its vibrant atmosphere, playful spirit, and distinctive coastal setting.
The festival presents a wide-ranging programme of live music, comedy, spoken word, and late-night entertainment across eight uniquely themed stages. Alongside headline acts and emerging artists, Lindisfarne places equal emphasis on wellness spaces, immersive environments, food and drink, and a close-knit festival community. The result is a festival with a big personality, offering a weekend that blends celebration, escapism, and creative exploration by the sea.

Festival Capacity: ≈ 8,000
Lindisfarne Festival does not publish an official capacity figure. However, multiple festival listings and industry features describe the event as operating at a reported daily capacity of around 8,000 people at its Beal Farm site. This reflects the festival’s current scale following steady growth from earlier editions and refers to maximum daily attendance, rather than cumulative admissions across the weekend.
