Thanks for the response. I'd checked the website but like you saw only the 2007 details and wondered whether the Email address was still valid. The two (Yacht Race and Folk Festival) have been the same weekend for several years now so I think it was intentional rather than co-incidental.
I've had it confirmed that Portpatrick Folk Festival will be 05th to 07th September this year and thus the week after the yacht race.
You're right too. Portpatrick is beatiful and (although a bit out of the way) the Festival Weekend is always worth the effort.
