Raggytash forgot to mention that Broadstairs Folk Festival in Kent fills the week between Sidmouth and Whitby.
Some of us folk maniacs do all three, one after the other. This year a friend and I did the trio and then spent the weekend at Bridgnorth to finish off the circuit. You end up with folk fatigue but as each festival is different you see a huge selection of singers and dancers in a short space of time.

Sadly I can't give you a booking because my club closes for July and August. Looking forward to meeting you at a festival in 2005.
