Family Fun and Young Folk

Lots of family fun at Folk Week every year.

There will be daily fun at the Bandstand with the Hobby Horse Club, lead by Zoe and Peter of Inspiration Theatre and regular visits by the Hooden Horses and Clarence the Dragon. Families of all ages love joining in the games and dances.

Creative fun with our new team – a super opportunity to play, discover and make lots of new friends who like crafty things and getting a bit messy!

Fun through music – lots of opportunities to learn new instruments or improve on those already being learnt.Fun with Family and Friends – at lunchtime Ceilidhs, shows and workshops

Have a go at the Hooden Horse Hunt, posters of our cheeky Hooden Horses will be on display all week, can you spot what they are holding or wearing, download or grab an entry form from either of our merchandise stalls (Bandstands and Craft Fair ) to win a Folk Week goody bag.  download an Entry form here

Enjoying time together!
You can book individual event tickets or purchase an all inclusive Festival ticket for the week, weekend or individual days.
