Family-focused summer festival at Manor Farm in Staxton with multiple stages, food and drink, a children's tent, a fairground and inflatables.
Staxtonbury returns to Manor Farm in Staxton on Friday 23 July 2027, running from 12:00 pm to 11:00 pm. It's a one-day music festival run by the Staxtonbury Music Festival, and they've billed it as a family-focused affair that marks the launch of summer. If you're in Scarborough or nearby, it's a full day out rather than a quick gig.
Across the site, there are multiple stages to move between, so you can drift from one set to the next throughout the afternoon and evening. It's not just about the music, either: there's a children's tent for the smaller ones, a fairground, and inflatables, which explains the family focus they talk about. Between the stages, there's food and drink on hand to keep you going from midday through to the 11:00 pm finish.
Because it's spread across a farm, it's the kind of day where you can spend as much or as little time as you like. You might start with the fairground and the kids' tent in the afternoon and then settle in for the music as the evening takes over. The whole thing runs from noon until late, so it's a long stretch that takes you from the middle of the day right through to the end of the night.
