Staxtonbury, the Family Music Festival, showcasing local talent from the area. For the second time the event will take place at Manor Farm, Staxton.

As with our previous two years we are focusing on presenting a fantastic spectrum of musical talent in a safe, family environment.

So who’s playing; well again we will be promoting many new young, local bands who will be supporting some of the favourites such as ‘The Shamrockers’, ‘Big Me’ and the
one and only 'Grand Urge'. For the full line up, please visit the Artist page on this site.

This year sees the introduction of The Acoustic Tent to Staxtonbury so those wanting to chill out a bit can really soak up some mellow tunes.

Back by popular demand enigmatic Jezz Pratt will be MC for the weekend, ably assisted by brilliant Dave Nicholson and the glamorous Hannah Creelman.

2011 is going to be bigger and better. Festival goers will find a more vibrant and colourful occasion. Not only can the young festival fans work off all that energy dancing to the bands but also, for the under 10s, there is going to be a play bus along with the usual bouncy castle, along with a childrens entertainer ( 1pm Sat. main stage ) and of course the famous Staxtonbury bears will be having a wander around.

As before the ever popular straw bales will be there for you to sit and relax on, and maybe enjoy a drink from our bar, which is being run by Kloisters (York Place, Scarborough) serving, amongst other things, the popular Wold Top beer.

The first two years have been sell outs so don’t be disappointed (as 100’s before have been) and take a look at the Ticket page on this site to order online or find out how and where to buy them. SAVE MONEY and guarantee getting a ticket by buying in advance, don't worry if the weather turns bad, we are going to have a number of covered areas, so you can still enjoy your favourites.

You can once again make Staxtonbury your temporary home and ‘Hitch a Pitch’ on the camping facilities (hopefully we will have showers at a small extra cost). Pitches can be booked for £10 per night, for tents, caravans, camper vans etc - please note there are no electric hook up facilities. Book now at our Hitch a Pitch page.

We really hope you can make this year’s Staxtonbury, this website has loads of information and great ideas on how to make the most of a cracking festival, so please do take a look around.

See you there!
