Welcome to the Southdowns Folk Festival website. Taking place between Friday 20th and Sunday 22nd September 2013 in beautiful Hotham Park, The Regis Centre and other quality venues around the seaside town of Bognor Regis, this new festival revives the highly successful SOUTHDOWNS FOLK FESTIVAL which ran in the 1980s. Featuring some of the very top headline acts on the folk/roots scene, there will also be dance groups, art exhibitions, the BIG BITE ARTISAN FOOD FESTIVAL, music workshops and sessions, ceilidhs, children's entertainments, archive folk film plus a choice of accommodation to suit all budgets. What`s more, everything is FREE except for the three headline act evening concerts in the Regis Centre. A Full Weekend ticket for these is only £46 with individual evening tickets only £18 each! All in all, the new SOUTHDOWNS FOLK FESTIVAL offers a great weekend and excellent value for money.
