We’re sorry to say that Music on the Marr won’t be happening in 2021.
With the surrounding uncertainty still around the pandemic and its likely existence well into the rest of the year, we simply can’t afford to plan with such unknowns.
As a festival we take seriously our obligations to ticket holders and artists alike – we feel we have little choice.
So with great sadness we have taken the decision to cancel this year’s festival – the second year in a row we’ve had to do this.
Thank you for your continued support. We’ll let you know about 2022 just as soon as we can.

Music on the Marr
We have music workshops, wandering magicians, circus acts, poetry, traditional dancing, willow weaving and a high-quality arts market. Homemade food can be found in the Magnificent Tea Emporium, and delicious coffees come courtesy of the Casbah Coffee Van. There’s also guided nature trails over the weekend into the beautiful Geltsdale countryside.
2020 will be the eleventh year of our not-for-profit festival. Every year we aim to improve on what’s gone before. We are very inclusive and like to encourage young people to enjoy live entertainment, therefore all accompanied children 16 years and under will have FREE access to the entire festival.
Come along and enjoy something you’ll remember for a very long time.
