Welcome to the 25th Swanage Folk Festival. The folk festival has come a long way since our first day of dance in 1992. It has grown into a full and varied weekend of music and dance.
From Friday 8th September to Sunday 10th September the small seaside town on the beautiful Jurassic coast of Dorset will fill up with hundreds of colourful dancers and the town will resonate to the sound of bells jingling, sticks thwacking and excellent music.
