The Magic Loungeabout returns for its third year with an inspiring programme of music and arts. A family-friendly festival for the more discerning out there, it offers the perfect mix of avante pop, fringe cabaret, inspiring speakers, thought provoking cinema and fine food, all set in the spectacular grounds of Broughton Hall.

The Magic Loungeabout is one of the most imaginative festivals in the north and the ultimate escape to the country for those in the know. Loungeabouters can indulge in everything from VIP waiter service and morning papers and breakfast delivered to your tent, to a wide range of boutique accommodation and massages, spa treatment and succulent home-cooked food.

Acts in the past have included The Human League, Badly Drawn Boy, New Young Pony Club, Ed Sheeran, Howard Marks and many more.
