Upton Folk Festival 2011
Upton Folk Festival is in its 22nd year and continues to provide a great mixture of concerts, dances, workshops, Morris and other dance displays on the beautiful riverside of the Worcestershire town of Upton Upon Severn.
For the third year running we have kept our weekend tickets prices the same but, this year, enhanced the scope and quality of our performers.
We are opening our campsite a day earlier, this year, to allow you to join us for the extra day to celebrate or avoid the Royal Event. Our programme has been extended to account for this, see Outline Programme above for details. Also the town of Upton has invited us to share in their celebrations on Friday.
Programme
This is a provisional programme subject to confirmation. Upton Folk Festival will make every endeavour to adhere to it but reserve the right to make any changes, necessary for whatever reason, before the weekend.
