Kendal calling started in 2006 set in Abbot Hall Park overlooking Kendal Castle. It had a capacity of 900 with a circus big top hosting most of the acts. Saturday was headlined by Pendulum with Breaks Co-op, Nucleus Roots and others. Sunday was a full day of live bands with Kendal born rockers British Sea Power closing the festival, the performance was made famous by lead guitarist Martin Noble climbing the 50 ft centre pole while robots danced on stage.In 2007 Kendal Calling moved location to Grate Farm on the A591 just outside of Kendal. The capacity was raised to 2000 and more stages were added to accommodate additional artists. The Friday night was headlined by BBC Radio 1’s Grooverider with Freestylers on the undercard. The Sunday included Kendal boys Wild Beasts, The Redwings, The Answering Machine and headliners, Carl Barât's Dirty Pretty Things.
