Tributes, tunes and twilight skies: Derwent Fest returns to the shores of Derwent Reservoir in August 2027 for a weekend of live music, food and relaxation in the North Pennines.
Expect a line-up of tribute acts and live bands across two days, with the arena opening at 4pm on Friday (first act from 6.30pm) and at 10.30am on Saturday (first act from 11.30am). The 2027 line-up will be announced soon.
There's street food across the weekend and a licensed bar, and you're welcome to bring your own food and sealed soft drinks (no alcohol in the arena). Well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome too.
Make a weekend of it with camping for tents, motorhomes and caravans on site, with modern toilet and shower facilities. Derwent Waterside Park is a dark skies site, so after the music, look up: on a clear night you might even catch the Northern Lights.
Day and weekend tickets are available now from Bookwhen. Find out more on the Waterside Parks website.
