City Wide Celebration of Folk
Jump to
Overview
In an exciting shake up for 2026 the Cambridge Folk Festival umbrella reaches wider than ever. Organisers will work with local venues, promoters and folk clubs to schedule a variety of events in multiple venues across the city. These will include concerts at Cambridge Corn Exchange on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 July and city venues during the week commencing 27th July.
Cambridgeshire Music will host the Summer School again in 2026, 27-30 July, with a finale performance on Saturday 1 August during the Cherry Hinton Hall weekend.
This innovative new approach will provide extra opportunities for existing fans to enjoy more of the music they love and encourage new fans to join the community.
One of the most celebrated events in the UK summer calendar, Cambridge Folk Festival returns in 2026 with multi-venue, city-wide events, culminating in a 2-day Festival on Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 August, at the festivals heart, Cherry Hinton Hall.
