Shrewsbury Folk Festival

Shrewsbury Folk Festival 2026

Thursday 27 - Monday 31 August 2026

West Midlands Showground, Gravel Hill Ln, Shrewsbury SY1 2PF

WHAT A WEEKEND!

Was that the best ever festival? We think so! A HUGE thank you to everyone who joined us for Shrewsbury 2025 – our incredibly hard working team, our volunteers, the artists, dancers, countless crews, sponsors and supporters and, of course, our amazing festivalgoers, who bring the Shrewsbury magic to life.

We’re already dreaming of next year and the wait won’t be long...

Tickets for 2026 go on sale Monday, September 1st at 9am. Mark your calendars

Heads-up on a few pointers for 2026:

There's a new Thursday to Monday camping ticket so there's no need to buy separate Thursday and weekend tickets - as ever, they are limited and will sell out VERY QUICKLY! ♿ We've introduced carer and concession prices for day tickets

The payment plan is BACK - the sooner you buy, the more you spread the cost. Buy in September and you can pay over 10 months.
