MEMBER: Stainsby Festival

Stainsby is a well-established, intimate and family friendly festival in a beautiful rural setting.
Every summer for the past 48 years, this tiny hamlet - population 32 + 5 dogs - comes alive
to some of the best folk and world music to be heard anywhere in the country. Held on a
greenfield site at Brunt's Fields, you can chill out by day on a gently sloping field with superb
views over Stainsby Pond across the valley to Hardwick Hall. You can live it up by night when
the festival does late, late sessions and the occasional fire show to close the festival on Sunday.
This festival really does have something for everyone, crafts stalls, children’s entertainment,
music workshops, a singer’s competition, poetry, theatre, philosophy walks, a stunning real ale bar
featuring beer from Derbyshire’s microbreweries and walkabout events happening right through
the weekend. Run by unpaid volunteers as a not-for-profit charity, all the money goes back into
the event and nowhere else. What more could you want?!
