Folk In The Park

Who heard the shout-out we got on BBC Radio 6 Music on the morning of Folk In The Park 2025!!

It was such a special day

Our festival got a REVIEW!!!! 😱 thank you SO much to AmericanaUK, Oliver Gray for such an amazing account of the day.

EVERYONE has been talking about what a great audience it was. The artists, the agents and the reviewers it seems ♥️ so congratulations to you for turning up as a true music fan - there for all the right reasons!

“The setup in the field is clever. The stages are positioned so that audience members (impeccably quiet and attentive) merely have to swivel their chairs around between sets”

“If you were seeking a great festival act, what would you look for? Humour, versatility, virtuosity, beautiful voices and infectious songs? Ashley Campbell has them all……Her tribute to her dad, Glen, ‘Remembering‘, created one of the most moving, pin-drop silent experiences any festival has ever seen.”

“Could a solo Richard Thompson hold a crowd after such a varied day? Nobody should have doubted it, ‘Genesis Hall’ from “Unhalfbricking” and ‘Turning Of The Tide’ led into a boldly unpredictable set of unparalleled beauty. In a day filled with musical dexterity, Thompson topped it off in a gripping way, retaining the attention of a knowledgeable audience. ‘Beeswing’ triumphed as the song of the day”

“With so many half-baked festivals around, this day was an object lesson of an impeccable concept carried out with the vital skills of sensitive curation, sequencing and just pure humanity. Congratulations to everyone involved.”
