There’s something magic about The Magpies Festival, and sorting the right accommodation can make a big difference. If you’re looking for The Magpies Festival accommodation that’s cosy, calm and already set up when you arrive, you’re in the right place.
Music drifting through Sutton Park’s old trees, a crowd that feels like a friendly village: it’s a weekend that stays with you.
How you sleep shapes how you remember it. There’s the version where you fight with tent poles in the rain, and there’s the version where you arrive to find your bed made, your lights already glowing, and your own quiet space waiting for you.
That’s where our boutique bell tents come in.
Camping at The Magpies Festival (And How to Make It Easy)

Camping is part of the festival charm. You wake to birdsong and stroll over for a morning coffee, with no clock-watching at the end of the night. The Magpies Festival offers on-site camping in the beautiful grounds of Sutton Park, and it’s a lovely setup. But if you’d rather not pack the kitchen sink (or sleep on a slope), there’s a simpler option. Book Here
We offer pre-pitched bell tents, just a short walk from the action.
A Folk Festival That Feels Like a Secret
The Magpies Festival takes place 14-15 August 2026 in York’s Sutton Park, a big estate with ancient trees and open lawns. It’s a celebration of folk, roots, and acoustic music with a thoughtful lineup and a laid-back atmosphere.
The 2026 lineup includes Mànran, Cut Capers, Katherine Priddy, Gnoss, Blair Dunlop, New York Brass Band, Daraa Tribes, and of course The Magpies. Alongside the music, you’ll find creative workshops, local food and drink, family activities, and a crowd that’s as friendly as the music is good.
