About Two Rivers

The Two Rivers Folk Festival organisers are committed to the organisation of community based events, based on the varied and rich heritage and traditions of the Welsh / English border lying between the two mighty rivers the Wye and the Severn.

The over-riding aim of Two Rivers is to involve the local and wider community in as many ways as possible, and to provide a showcase for skills and talents, whether they be practical or organisational.

We actively encourage all ages, sexes and abilities to participate in the events, to learn (and enjoy!) new skills.
