Keswick Mountain Festival (KMF) is the UK’s premier mountain festival, based in Crow Park, with the stunning backdrop of Derwentwater and the Lake District fells.

Founded in 2007, KMF is now one of the UK’s best-loved outdoor festivals. Each event attracts thousands of visitors to the iconic fells and lakes of Cumbria with its unique mix of live entertainment, sports races, outdoor adventures, high profile speakers, activities, exhibitor stands, Accessibility Zone, and camping for all of the family.

KMF’s schedule of sports and outdoor races and challenges include running, cycling, swimming, multi-sport and hiking events over two days. Attendees can also book to go on offsite guided mountain activities, where instructors will literally show you the ropes.

Live music takes place over the Friday and Saturday night and attracts some major acts who provide the antidote and after-party to the day’s prior sporting events. A firm fixture at the event, is Timothy Taylor’s Mountain Bar, an iconic tepee that’s part of the festival skyline. Attracting some of the best known global outdoor brands as sponsors, there’s plenty to keep you entertained for retail and merchandise. An amazing array of independent street food and drink stalls offer a wide selection of choice meaning there’s something for everyone.

And that’s not all, KMF also provides a cultural element with the opportunity to stand back, listen, learn and admire the abilities of the world’s best athletes, world class mountaineers and local legends too at Theatre by the Lake and Tent Talks. So, no matter what your preference there’s plenty on offer for all ages and abilities. KMF even has a wide range of ticket options that allows each festival goers to build their own unique experience that’s perfectly suited for them.
