In June 2022 the Old Time Sailors entertained you in a giant marquee in Ford Park. In June 2023 we’ll be doing something a bit different, but still special.

By popular demand, we have decided to return to the town centre. The festival will be in Market Street and New Market Street, with the Sun Hotel hosting the live music stage in their beer garden.

We have now booked market stalls, performers and vehicle exhibitors. We’ll be announcing the music programme shortly.

Based in the centre of the brilliant old market town of Ulverston, Retro Rendezvous is a full weekend of fabulous retro fun. Music, food, dance, clothes, markets, cars, motorcycles, drink and the famous Velo Retro old school cycling events through the Lake District. It’s about as much fun as you can have with your retro clothes on! Entry to the festival for most events is free of charge. So put it in the diary and get ready for one of the great weekends of the summer.
