Hi there. I did post something on this earlier this year and I've dutifully checked the forum before posting, but no results came up.

Here's some info. on this year's Middlewich Folk & Boat Festival (lifted straight from their official site).

I'm forwarding a link to this thread to Liz Rosenfield, so that she can fill in further details/answer any questions anyone might have.

I will make only one prediction, and that is that Mr Happy will be at The Boar's Head on at least one occasion during the weekend.

You've all waited very patiently, and now here's the line-up for MFAB2009 (all subject to contract and change of course). We're excited by it, and we're sure you will be too!

FRIDAY 19 JUNE: Mark Radcliffe and the Family Mahone, supported by Stan's Magic Foot.

SATURDAY 20 JUNE: Afternoon - Blue Murder (Norma & Mike Waterson, Martin Carthy, Coope, Boyes & Simpson + a special guest) supported by Ashley Hutchings' Rainbow Chasers, Gina Le Faux and Tom Doughty. Evening - Ade Edmondson & the Bad Shepherds, supported by Cave, Ella Edmondson Band and Vicki and Trefor Williams. Also the Ceilidh with All Blacked Up.

SUNDAY 21 JUNE: Afternoon - Thea Gilmore, supported by Rachel Harrington, Andrea Glass, and The Secret Band (line-up withheld because they're Secret!). Evening - Jim Moray, supported by Isambarde and Zoox.

Credit Crunch-Beating Weekend tickets (held at last year's prices) plus Saturday and Sunday day tickets are on sale now - either through the downloadable Booking Form or by PayPal. Individual concert tickets will not be on sale until May 1st, but as always you'll get a better deal buying day or weekend tickets. So go to Box Office, buy them as soon as you can, and we'll see you at the Festival.
