Beat-Herder 2018

Beat-Herder logo
Ribble Valley, Sawley, Gisburn, Lancashire

The Beat-Herder Festival is the brainchild of six creative Yorkshire men who were tired of overcrowded and pretentious festivals that were overrun with the same big brands and corporate sponsors. 

Although the festival has grown over the years, it has retained the thing that always made it a standout event - the atmosphere remains surprisingly intimate and incredibly friendly.  In 2017 Sleaford Mods and Crystal Fighters were among the big names electrifying the audience with their performances, so you can be sure when the announcements start to be made about the artists appearing at 2018, that it will be an amazing show!
