FolkEast
17 August - 19 August 2018
Founded in 2012, FolkEast is an East Anglian celebration of folk music held at Glemham Hall in Suffolk. The festival offers a wide range of live folk music as well as camping, on-site workshops, high quality food, circus style rides and entertainment and traditional dancing too.
Although the line-up for 2018 has yet to be finalised, Jon Boden, The Young 'Uns and a cast of many more took to the stages in 2017's event and put on a sterling show, so you will be parting with your hard earned cash for a great value show if you invest in tickets even without knowing who is going to play because the organisers know what they are doing.
Glemham Hall, Suffolk
camping options are available at this event and can be booked when you buy your ticket.
