There is lots of promise in the air, including the encouraging news on the vaccination roll-out. Hopefully everything is starting to finally herald the light at the end of a very long tunnel. As things stand currently, there is still much uncertainty about what will be viable in terms of any remaining restrictions and guidelines and indeed, what will be attractive to our loyal audiences and participants. With that in mind, we are preparing for all eventualities and will not announce any final plans for The Sidmouth Folk Festival 2021 until early April. Rest assured, however, we will do our very best to offer you the finest possible Sidmouth Folk Festival experience and we cannot wait for you to join us beside the sea! |

Our journey down includes the dreaded M6 and M74 as well as the M5! |
