With a wide range of concerts, workshops, a ceilidh, children’s activities and an indoor market place with stalls selling everything from jewellery and clothing to musical instruments, as well as the infamous Real Ale bar, the Folk Festival brings together all walks of life over the weekend, turning Cheltenham into a feast of colour and energy including up to 20 morris dance sides that take to the streets on the Saturday and Sunday! It’s a festival not to be missed!
