The Lytham Festival (formerly and colloquially Lytham Proms) is an annual five-day music festival held in Lytham St Annes, Lancashire. The festival takes place adjacent to Lytham Windmill on Lytham Green, a strip of grass between the town's coastal road and the River Ribble estuary. In promotion and ticketing, festival organisers refer to the venue as "The Proms Arena". It is usually held in mid-July, with the final night often featuring an evening of orchestral classical music, in the style of a traditional promenade concert. Lytham Festival first took place in 2009, and is operated by Lancashire-based promoter Cuffe & Taylor, owned by Live Nation UK. The festival typically has a capacity of 20,000.[1][2]

2020 and 2021

Lytham Festival 2020 was originally announced in late 2019, with the headline acts being Westlife, Lewis Capaldi, Snow Patrol, Lionel Richie and Little Mix.[20] In April 2020, the event was confirmed to be cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in England.[21]

Lytham Festival 2021 was originally announced in late 2020, with the headline acts being Lewis Capaldi, Snow Patrol, Lionel Richie and Duran Duran. On March 26, 2021, the festival was announced to be cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with organisers confirming that the headline acts would be rebooked for Lytham Festival 2022.[22]

2022

In July 2021, Fylde Borough Council granted the tournament organisers a "one year only" license to run Lytham Festival for ten nights in 2022, rather than the usual five nights. This was due to the 2020 and 2021 festivals being canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[23] The full lineup for Lytham Festival 2022 was confirmed in March 2022. The festival ran from 28 June 2022 to 10 July 2022.[24]

In February 2022, Lionel Richie pulled out of the festival, and was replaced with Nile Rodgers & Chic.[25] On 29 June, Lytham Festival announced that Kodaline had withdrawn from supporting Snow Patrol and were to be replaced by Maxïmo Park.[26] On 9 July 2022, a few hours before their performance, headliners Tears for Fears withdrew from the festival due to Curt Smith "injuring his rib". Opening acts Natalie Imbruglia and Alison Moyet still performed.[27]
