Festival 2020

Coronavirus (COVID-19) update:

It is clear that the situation surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak remains one of rapid change and no guidance is as yet offering an understanding of how long things will take before we can be secure in hosting social events.  As the festival weekend is a little way off as yet (July 10-12) we will be monitoring the situation and will make announcements here and across our social media threads as to whether we can bring a festival weekend to reality this year. 
We are looking at ways to continue to bring a strong programme of folk and traditional song, music, dance and storytelling to the area and if things are a bit quieter this year then the festival will be a belter in 2021!
