21 Nov 10 - 12:04 PM (#3037379) Subject: UK Festival Dates Please? From: buddhuu I'm trying to organise a folk day, or weekend, at The Plough in Ley Green, Herts during June, July or August. I'd like to avoid clashing with the essential festivals if I can. I'd be grateful if people would post any festival or even dates that they are aware of. It'd help me to get a feel for choosing a date. I know we won't be able to avoid everything. |

21 Nov 10 - 04:13 PM (#3037560) Subject: RE: UK Festival Dates Please? From: GUEST,Derek Schofield dates for festivals in England and Wales in 2011 are now on the EFDSS website www.efdss.org/festivals/2011 and also published in the new issue of English Dance & Song magazine (posted to members and subscribers early this next week). If you notice any omissions, then please let me know - several festivals haven't updated their websites since earlier this year, and haven't responded to requests from me for the dates, so they are not yet in the list! A few others haven't fixed dates yet! Derek Schofield Editor can someone do the blue clicky thing please? thanks. |

21 Nov 10 - 07:35 PM (#3037671) Subject: RE: UK Festival Dates Please? From: Joe Nicholson The froots list includes Saddleworth but the web site leaves some doubt. Does anyone know anything it would be a shame if we were to lose it. Joe nicholson |
22 Nov 10 - 05:36 AM (#3037826) Subject: RE: UK Festival Dates Please? From: Carol There are a lot of smaller DIY type weekends but I'm sure you would know of any that are local to you |
22 Nov 10 - 06:42 AM (#3037861) Subject: RE: UK Festival Dates Please? From: GUEST,Mr Red have a look at my list see if there are any small festivals that might compete with your own remit. cresby.com > festivals > june onwards Oh, and consult any listing sites that cover your area my RoW listing sites eg and tell them! Some have regular e-mailouts. Don't forget local radio, news papers, and even TV on a slow news day. |
22 Nov 10 - 09:46 AM (#3037959) Subject: RE: UK Festival Dates Please? From: GUEST,Derek Schofield Joe Nicholson asked about Saddleworth. They are not in the EDS list because the website has not been updtaed and no-one answered my phone calls and emails. I am happy to include it in the online version if and when someone tells me! I am also happy to include the smaller scale DIY events, but like to be able to include specific dates, contact details, website, email... Derek Schofield |
