About

With over 600 Performers Already Confirmed, our unique in-town festival will be another memorable folk weekend with music, dance and entertainment in every town-centre street and pub with 7 stages and dance venues. Not forgetting the Island Park community stages and session beer tent located alongside the beautiful River Avon. A great place to relax, soak up the atmosphere and enjoy a session and entertainment with children, family and friends.

YES, it’s another magnificent event with all the folk trimmings we’re famous for. A brilliant line up and concerts booked including The East Pointers, Phil Beer & Paul Downes, Miranda Sykes and Seth Lakeman. And, once again we have secured a great calling team with bands including Banter with Fee Lock, Sawney White Bird, Doug Eunson & Sarah Matthews, Portmanteau, Hinny & Joe Wass with callers Andrew Swaine, Bernie Culkin, Geoff Cubitt, John Stewart, Susanna Diamond… and more to meet every style.
