Notes
for editors:
Sidmouth FolkWeek is an unmissable
week-long seaside celebration of music, dance and song taking place
in the beautiful East Devon regency coastal resort.
There has been a folk festival in Sidmouth
in the first week of August every year since 1955 attracting tens
of thousands of visitors to over 700 diverse events with broad
?something for everyone' appeal. With an ear to the past and an eye
on the future, the festival features established stars and emerging
talent; major concerts, lively roots parties; small intimate
sessions; ceilidhs and folk dancing; storytelling; fun family
entertainment and youth-centred sessions; hands-on workshops and
spectacular dance displays; the best in South West crafts and the
tastiest of local food and drink.
The town's streets and venues burst with
festive atmosphere and colour as holidaymakers and festival goers
join together in the friendliest music-based holiday of the summer.
