...Chippenham, this lovely luxury hotel is so convenient for the festival. You can dip in for the events of your choice or just to enjoy the sights and the sounds of this popular festival. Then you can dip out back to luxury, comfort and impeccable service.
This wonderful folk festival originally started in nearby Lacock, now better known for its opera festival. However, it still retains much of its original village atmosphere.
There are three and half days of song, dance, folk workshops and dance displays. Over 200 events take place within the town centre, turning the whole town into a giant folk festival party. The main ceilidh and concert events take place in Chippenham’s beautiful park alongside the river. However, just about every pub and entertainment venue in town venue host a session of some sort as well as workshops, smaller concerts and dances.
There is also a full programme of children’s events, a large craft marquee, catering facilities and an open air arena in the park. Throughout the weekend, there is plenty of busking, street theatre and processions as well as a huge street fair that happens on the Monday.
