Daresbury Festival runs from noon until 11pm on Saturday 19 June at Walton Hall and Gardens near Warrington. Expect house and disco across the day—the sort of programming that keeps you moving from lunch through to late evening. It's 18+ only, so you'll be among grown-ups who know what they're doing.
The vibe
Walton Hall is no concrete car park. You're dancing surrounded by proper gardens—manicured lawns, mature trees, and the kind of space that lets you actually breathe between tracks. House and disco together mean the energy stays warm and groovy rather than relentlessly heavy. This is a festival built for people who want to dance without losing the plot.
Getting tickets
Tickets are available through Skiddle. Pricing hasn't been finalised yet, but expect day-festival rates—typically £30–50 depending on how far out you book. Early-bird slots often shift first, so don't leave it too late if the lineup appeals.
