The digital version of Scandimoot 2021 will take place at the usual time of the early May Bank Holiday weekend, 1st to 3rd May.

DIGIMOOT will run over three days with a mix of live workshops and pre-recorded performances, featuring artists both familiar and new. The digital format has given the festival the opportunity to include artists, workshops and performances in the programme that it wouldn't normally have the resources for, so make sure to have a look at the line-up.

This year's Upton-upon-Severn Folk Festival is being 'Delivered to your Door' with four fantastic days of online concerts, sessions, storytelling, a ceilidh and Morris from 30 April - 3 May.

All delivered for free (though with donations gratefully accepted) there's lots to see.

Guests involved include Jackie Oates & John Spiers, Damien Barber, Sarah Matthews & Doug Eunson, Jo Freya, Phoebe Rees, Rosie Hood, Matt Quinn, Pat Smith & Ned Clamp, Ben Robertson, Chris Lowe, Martin Hughes and Jim Magaeen & Graeme Knights.

Join all the Girvan regulars and friends and visitors from all over the world on the 1st and 2nd of May for the online version of this year's festival.

There will be two headline concerts featuring Gatehouse, Crows, Alan Reid, Maurice Leyden & Jane Cassidy, Nick Dow, Peter & Barbara Snape, Dougie Mackenzie & Brian Miller and several others. Plans are afoot for some late-night-extras and other events.

The 14th Gate To Southwell Festival is now set to take place in September 2021 at a beautiful new location in the nearby village of Kirklington (just outside Southwell).  Having had to cancel the 2020 festival because of the COVID pandemic, the GTSF organisers are confident that four days of folk, roots and acoustic music from the UK and all over the world will go ahead from Thursday 2nd September to Sunday 5th September.
