Folk Week is famous for filling the town with dancers, musicians and free entertainment. In this our 60th Year we’ve added even more free events for you to enjoy and get involved in.

This year we have added our Pierremont Community Hub, you will find this behind Pierremont Hall, you can join in with Singing and Music sessions, perform on our Introducing Young Folk Stage and enjoy music with some great bands early evening. Plus a Commemorative Folk Show on Thursday.

There are 160 pub gigs booked by Folk Week this year. You can find them all listed in the Souvenir Programme and on our Pub gigs page.

The Bandstand on the seafront is always a popular venue for families, Hobby Horse Club each morning, free Ceilidhs, Dance Displays, great music early evening too. Plus you can’t miss the brilliant Morris dancing around town along the cliff top each day.

The Craft Fair will be open daily Sat – Fri 10-8.30pm where you’ll find not just great gifts and treats to purchase but the bar and food stands make it a great venue too.
