A hugely popular annual festival by the sea during August around the town of Broadstairs
Broadstairs Folk Week is a hybrid of a greenfield festival in the middle of a town – with a beautiful beach too – making a great family holiday.
There are over 400 events crammed into one week across 20+ venues of which over 160 are FREE – including workshops for all abilities in music and song, parade, full programme of dances and ceilidhs, Poets’ Breakfast and Craft and Music Fair. The ever-popular official free pub gig programme takes place in pubs around the town.
This annual festival includes everything from family shows at the Bandstand, featuring Kent’s traditional Hooden Horses, to some of the biggest names in folk music. There are plenty of opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to join in with singing, playing and dancing.
