Programme of Folk Camps

With Folk Camps you can experience folk music, singing and dancing, and take part in the wide range of other activities on offer. If you like music, have a sense of humour and enjoy meeting new people, this is the place to find out more about our family-friendly holidays.

Each year Folk Camps finds beautiful locations throughout England and Wales (and sometimes Scotland or Europe) to host events. Our holidays include:

• week long fully-catered summer camps
• self-catered camping weekends at bank holidays
• hotel breaks during the winter
• “workshop weekends” where we concentrate more on singing, dancing or music

We find sites in attractive locations, where there are also lots of places to visit and things to do. There will be a field to camp on and either a hall or a marquee for eating, dancing, playing, singing and any number of other activities.

Folk Camps Plans for 2021 Season

While Folk Camps hope to be able to run some events in 2021, it is currently too early to know if it is safe or sensible to do so. See more details of our plans for announcing and opening the 2021 programme here.

The following table shows the original 2020 programme so you can get a sense of what is planned for 2021.

Waiting Lists

If the camp that you want to join is shown as “Waiting List” then please email the office to enquire about whether it is worth you joining the waiting list. Please include the camp name and details of who is in your party (i.e. your names – and ages of any children). We’ll then discuss your options with you.
