Overview
About
Manchester Folk Festival takes place across several venues in the Northern Quarter, Manchester's cultural district, rather than on a single site. It brings together artists spanning a broad definition of contemporary folk music, in a format built around moving between venues. Founded in 2018, it also runs concerts throughout the year beyond the annual festival.
