About Me
- The Co-operative Cambridge Folk Festival
- The Cambridge Folk Festival is one of the premier music events in Europe and one of the longest running and most famous folk festivals in the world. It has become hugely popular and a regular sell out attracting ten thousand people, many of whom return year after year. The Festival is renowned for its eclectic mix of music and a wide definition of what might be considered folk. The best traditional folk artists from the UK and Ireland rub shoulders with more contemporary acts, the finest American country, blues and roots artists, acclaimed singer songwriters and even the odd pop star. Bluegrass, gospel, cajun, zydeco, jazz, world, klezmer and a ceilidh are also regular features. The line up has reflected the many changes in the music scene from the 60s to the present and is always a hotbed mix of the old and the new. The list of performers who have appeared reads like a who’s who and the Festival has been a launching pad for many now well known artists.

Does anybody know if tonight is now open to non-redidents? I was told this by two separate members of staff from the Corn Exchange Box Office last week.
Looking forward to seeing Adrian and the Bad Shepherds play tonight! Anyone know what time they are on?
Post artist times as soon as you have them, help us organise our weekend
Yes, tonight is open to non residents - you will need a ticket though as it is sold out!
