The Oxford Folk Festival is a small but lively and inclusive grass-roots festival.

Largely FREE to visitors, it exists to celebrate folk music and dance, and those who perform it.

Several key central Oxford locations spearheaded by The Covered Market and strongly supported by Bodleian Libraries, the Tap Social Movement, the Old Fire Station, Westgate Oxford public library, Common Ground, Museum of Oxford and Blackwells, have all donated performance areas enabling semi-professional and amateur performers to showcase their repertoire. Dance is also a huge feature of this year’s Oxford Folk Festival.

Ticketed events are part of the programme, so enthusiasts can hear top professional folk musicians during the festival weekend.
