Name the festival beer
We’ve teamed up with 2016 sponsors Hobsons to create a special beer for the festival but we need your help to give it a name.
Thank you for the Hope House fundraising
We are delighted to reveal that the final total raised for Hope House this year was a wonderful £6,160! That’s over £1,000 more than last year.
New Dance Director
We are delighted to announce that we have appointed a new Dance Director! Jon Brenner has taken over the role from Phil Bassindale.
Name our new workshop venue
This amazing yurt from Shropshire Yurtmaker.co.uk will be our dedicated workshop venue this year. But the impressive 42ft handmade structure needs a name! We will give the winning suggestion* a free bag of merchandise and a meal on us (food vouchers to be redeemed at the festival). So send your ideas for the name for our workshop venue to competition@shrewsburyfolkfestival.co.uk before May 31.
* A winner will be picked at random and notified via email. Please remember to include your name and a contact number.
