Festival Founder Alex Trenchard said of this year’s event:
 
"Standon Calling 2013 was a huge success and the first time we've ever sold out the festivalWe've received amazing feedback from festival-goers and a lot of enquiries from people asking when they can secure their 2014 tickets, so we've put them on sale earlier than planned. I want to thank everyone who made this year's festival what it was: the artists, production and art crews, local residents for their support as well as the security and Herts police who did a great job of getting the balance right to ensure that the festival went off with only two minor incidents."
