Now it its 36th year WOMAD 2018 is set to be one of the most spectacular ever with an incredible and diverse line -up from around the world including Amadou & Mariam from Mali, Camille from France, the UK's art-rockers Django Django, the Irish accordion master Sharon Shannon, Cubian La Dame Blanche, from Jamaica Ken Boothe, the nu-jazz collective form Berlin Jazzanova live featuring Paul Randolph, the angel-voiced and wonderful Dobet Gnahore from the Ivory Coast plus too many more to mention.

But WOMAD is about so much more than incredible music; as well as these brilliant artists it has; live literary events and conversation at the World of Words; mind expanding talks, experiments and performance at the Physics Pavilion, pampering and relaxation at the World of Wellbeing and WOMAD Spa, an exclusive installation in World of Art, Fantastical activities and interactive workshops in The World of Children and the only stage in the world where artist perform and cook for the audience, the legendary Taste the World.
