Caversham Charity Folk Festival is on 15 - 17th June, which is rapidly approaching.
Here is the blicky to the website CCFF
Its free admission (except to the main concert), but you are encouraged to donate for the charities. You can either give to the collectors as the come round or buy a collection-free-zone badge for £5.
There is camping for £6 per adult & £3 per kid - which is pretty reasonable.
There should be plenty of concerts, sessions & singarounds going on, and its usually a great weekend. The music is mainly folk, blues & skiffle - there's a main site + fringe events in the local pubs etc.
I can highly recommend it. The artists and organisers donate their services for free, and I know the organisers have been working really hard - so come along and help them to make it a success....
Anyone coming? It'd be nice to have a bit of a gathering there.
