A Slice of Sunshine: The Eccentric Englishman joins the Northants Solstice Festival Line-Up on 21st June

The Eccentric Englishman

21 Jun 2025

Celebrate the longest day of the year with our special Solstice Cakes, made with love and sunshine!


Northampton’s much-loved summer celebration, Solstice Festival Northants, returns to Duston Mill, Sixfields on 21st June 2025, promising a magical day of music, creativity, and community spirit. Among the vibrant mix of local food and drink providers is none other than The Eccentric Englishman, bringing a delicious twist of quirky charm and sweet indulgence to the festivities.

Known for their award-winning, home-made cakes, from classic Victoria sponges to outrageously decadent cup-cakes, The Eccentric Englishman is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Festivalgoers can expect to choose from handcrafted bakes, with a special Solstice-themed selection to mark the longest (and hopefully sunniest) day of the year. Whether you're after a sunshine-drenched lemon drizzle or something whimsically wild and chocolatey, there’ll be a treat to suit every taste.

With live music, workshops, family fun, and a sunset bonfire ceremony, this family-friendly festival is a celebration of Northamptonshire’s creativity, and what better way to fuel your day than with a lovingly made slice (or two) from one of the region’s finest independent cake creators?

Come for the beats, the ‘eats’ and the bonfire – but don’t leave without something sweet and quirky from The Eccentric Englishman.
