The festival launched in 2017 but was unable to go ahead in 2019 due to bad weather and then in 2020 and 2021 due to Covid.
The 2023 event was such a success that its organisers decided to count it as a fresh start.
In a statement, the festival said: "Every festival makes its own journey - ours has been extraordinary and unique on so many levels.
"Last year we felt that we came nearer to the festival we envisaged eight years ago whilst it was in its infancy.
"It felt logical that we consider 2023 year one and therefore in many ways just the beginning.
"Every year we evolve our presentation of this long-term project and with this in mind we are delighted to present our most ambitious and broad music programme for Houghton year two in year eight."
Tickets for Houghton 2024 are on sale now.
