Bromyard Folk Festival

06/09/2026

Next weekend, Bromyard will be dancing!

Bromyard Folk Festival returns 10 to 13 September, and our traditional dance sides will once again be bringing music, colour and plenty of energy to the town and festival site.

It all begins on Friday evening with the torchlight procession through Bromyard, followed by a packed weekend of dance displays featuring a wonderful variety of traditions.

We're delighted to welcome back our regular festival sides:

Earlsdon
Faithful City
Jockey Morris
Ledbury Morris
Leominster Border Morris
Lord Conyers Morris
Shakespeare Morris
Silurian
Soft Option
White Hart

And this year we're very pleased to welcome our guest sides, some old friends and others making new acquaintances with Bromyard:

Chiltern Hundreds
Iron Men & Severn Gilders
Kittiwake Border
Roots Morris
Saddleworth Women's Morris & Clog
Sheffield Steel Rapper
Strictly Clog

You'll find the sides performing around Bromyard town centre and the festival site throughout the weekend, with Cotswold, Border, North West, clog, Appalachian, rapper and other dance traditions represented.

And you don't have to just watch. There are dance workshops during the weekend too, giving you the chance to have a go yourself.
