It is a different story on Saturday, though. Although temperatures will remain reasonably high, with 18C being the highest, it looks likely to rain. Light showers are predicted by the Met Office for most of the day.

Dryer on the Sunday

The final day, headlined by Courteeners, will be dryer.

The Met Office predicts that it will only rain occasionally and the showers will be light. By the evening the rain will have eased off and music fans can enjoy the close of Kendal Calling in fine weather.
