Organisers of Hertfordshire festival Standon Calling are set to reveal the first acts on the 2021 line-up.

The independent music and arts festival was forced to cancel its 'Party of All Time' this summer due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Standon Calling is now scheduled to return to the fields of Standon Lordship in the Hertfordshire countryside from Thursday, July 22 to Sunday, July 25, 2021, for its delayed 15th birthday party.

Primal Scream, Hot Chip and Bombay Bicycle Club were due to headline the 2020 summer spectacular.

The first line-up announcement for 2021 is coming early in the New Year.
