kimpton folk festival
Saturday 6 July,2024
TICKETS NOW ON SALE!
Spend a magic day out in the glorious Hertfordshire countryside, with some of the finest folk musicians in the land.
Rather unusually for a folk festival, the site for our event is…
… the entire village!
So stroll around and take it all in. On your way to concert venues at The Church and The Di King Stage, pause at the ‘busk-stops’ dotted around, pop into the village pub The Boot for a quick refresher or some barbecued tucker.
Attend a workshop in Kimpton’s chic Dacre Rooms, or head to the pretty village green for an afternoon’s free entertainment, some sumptuous artisan street food and a pint of locally brewed real ale from Farr Brew.
Just up the path you’ll find the Family Area on Garden Fields - with its incredible array of fun activities and entertainment for young and old: clay modelling, felting, junior morris dancing, have-a-go maypole dancing, faceprinting, storytelling, faceprinting and more!
You’ll find all the info you need in the free 24-page colour programme - or click to see who’s playing where.
