About

Celebrate May Day with a folk-filled weekend!

You and your family are invited to a joyful weekend bursting with music, dance, and creativity for all ages. Join us as we welcome the arrival of summer with three days of live music, dancing, hands-on activities and family-friendly fun.

We’re bringing together some of the finest folk musicians from England and Scotland for a vibrant programme of performances, free foyer gigs, and interactive workshops. It’s a celebration of music and dance rooted in folklore, landscape and tradition – with a generous twist of the new.

On Friday and Saturday, enjoy laid-back live sets in the foyer with our free Vibe Lounge performances. We’ll be adding even more folk and nature-inspired activities to the mix – so look out for updates!
