folk festival

Acoustic outdoor concert

A folk festival is a public gathering celebrating traditional music, dance, crafts, and cultural heritage, typically held outdoors over several days.

These events feature performances by folk musicians and often include workshops, storytelling, and artisan demonstrations.

Folk festivals range from small community celebrations to large annual events drawing thousands of attendees.

We camp at the folk festival every summer.
