Saltburn Folk Festival

03/09/2026

Do you see yourself on one of our festival stages, or delivering some folk inspired creative work as part of the Saltburn Folk Festival programme? Ever wondered how to contact our artistic team with your ideas and EPK?

We operate an expression of interest system for artists, in order to avoid approaches being lost in our mailboxes or social media messages. This is now open to EOIs for the 2027 festival!

We want to hear from you if you think you could bring something new to our music programme, or have an idea for folk centred creative delivery in a non- music art form.

Unfortunately, as we receive a significant amount of interest from artists and are a small team, we are unable to respond to all messages and applications to play. However, we do review responses to the EOI form. This is a rolling process, and will be closed when the 2027 programme is finalised.

Been there and didn't get the t-shirt?

If you didn't manage to grab some 2026 merch at the Festival Hub, you're in luck! We have a handful of adult and child sizes left, so why not get something to remember us by? Our size 9/11 and 12/13 children's T-shirts can also fit a small adult- so there are even more colours to choose from if that is you!

If you didn't manage to grab a programme and you'd like to keep one as a memento, they're now available at just £1 plus postage. By buying one, you'll be supporting the festival's future, as well as preventing them from going to waste. Alternatively, if you buy one of the T-shirts, we'll throw one in for free!
