About

Organized since 1964 by the Philadelphia Folksong Society, the festival takes place on the grounds of the Old Pool Farm in Upper Salford Township, about 45 minutes from Philadelphia. Seven stages run simultaneously, hosting artists from traditional to more contemporary folk, alongside workshops and a craft area. On-site camping draws a multigenerational, returning audience.
