Grace Jones has been announced as the Sunday night headliner for Standon Calling, which takes place from Friday 28th to Sunday 30th July 2017 (with early entry and limited entertainment available on the Thursday) in the grounds of a 16th Century manor house near Ware, Hertfordshire.

(Chk Chk Chk), British Sea Power, Slow Club and Fickle Friends amongst others, along with DJ sets from Faithless, Idris Elba, Lindstrøm, Joe Goddard and more. For all the details so far please see the Standon Calling line-up page.

There's also a new comedy programme, headlined by leading new comedian James Acaster, with emerging star John Robins also confirmed. Along with the gather-round thrills of the Pub Quiz, the sipping of smooth concoctions from the Cocktail Masterclasses, the unwinding Acoustic Sets or the in-depth talks, dancing until 4am, dipping in the outdoor swimming pool, toddlers to teens enjoying a daytime array of unique activities, and even the Standon Calling Dog Show, there's something unmistakably new at every corner of Standon Calling.

Tickets are on sale, priced at £137, £97 for a youth weekend pass (aged 13-17 years) and £35 for a child weekend pass (4-12 years), infants (0-3 years) tickets are priced at £5. A campervan pass is priced at £60. Car parking passes £20.
