Our entertainers were all top notch - both local and Winnipeg Folklarama people. We hope everyone had a great time - we certainly did! We had 500 local school kids join us throughout Friday and around 700 further attendees on Friday and around 700 again on Saturday.

So many many thanks to the volunteers that put so much effort into this event to make it a success. We most certainly couldn't do it without you. All the booths are run by volunteers - all the proceeds come back to Folkfest to pay for the event and give us a little surplus ready to start planning the next event in 3 years
