Tags: Standon Calling

Standon Calling is one of the UK's most diverse festivals on the UK calendar, boasting a unique line-up, a huge emphasis on art and performance - and most importantly, a swimming pool!

Standon Calling prides itself in bars that never seem to close, bands on the brink of breaking into the mainstream, it's setting in the grounds of a 16th century manor house and it's crazy fancy dress. This year's theme was 'spirit and discovery'.

This weekend, (3-5 August, 2012), the likes of Casiokids, Crazy P, Dub Pistols and many more took to the stage in Hertfordshire at the annual event. Check out photos of the best stage action right here...
