MassonFest Dry-tooling Festival
Now that summer's almost over and the nights are drawing in, many ice-climbers turn their gaze to Kinder and ask that age old question: Is it in yet?
To those intrepid dreamers we say: Course it bloody isn't! To everyone else we say it's time to get winter ready at the UK’s premier dry-tooling venue… MassonFest is back!

There’ll by the usual tooling related shenanigans you’ve come to expect, but thanks to collaboration with the quarry’s new owners, this year's MassonFest will be bigger and better! There will be onsite food vendors, bar, live music, stalls selling climbing and tooling gear. There will also be onsite camping, water and portaloos, as well as off-road parking.
Start your winter season off the right way, with a weekend of Dry-tooling fun, for everyone at The Cave of Dreams!
