*The opening night will be sessions in
all the hostelries who wish to be involved in the festival
*Timetabled events will occur during Saturday and Sunday only
*Bank Holiday Monday will be a "survivors day" where those remaining festival attendees can soak up the atmosphere of all the wonderful sessions that happen all over town.
*We will be offering affordable campers breakfasts in the Town Hall!
The website will be undergoing a
major update in preparation for next year's event over the coming
weeks, and the gallery will be updated to include the 2010 photographs.
A new shop page will also be added, enabling you to purchase the
T-shirts (currently available below) and pre-book your campsite space.*Timetabled events will occur during Saturday and Sunday only

Right
now though, we need YOUR help...
Would you like to perform at Dulverton Folk Festival 2011? Are you a band, or solo artist, well known, or not... we would love to hear from you - please drop us an email, preferably with a sound file, or links to your websites/youtube clips/myspace pages, whatever you have that can give us an idea of what you do.
PLEASE bear in mind we are a relatively SMALL festival, with a VERY tight budget (as you might imagine given we put it on for FREE), so if you charge for your performing please be aware that the amount may be the clincher!
We had 2 wonderful Morris sides this year, and we know that one would like to return, the other sadly has an engagement elsewhere next year - they will be missed.
SO, do you dance? It can be Morris dancing, Clog dancing or any other style of folk dance. We would love to hear from YOU if you would like to come and join in the fun at our festival in 2011.
We had several workshops during the 2010 festival, all of which were well attended and proved to be a lot of fun. We would love to hear from anyone who would be interested in running a workshop for the love of it!
Our festival relies heavily on the generosity of both the visitors to our event digging deep in their pockets, and that of local businesses. If you would like to sponsor the 2011 event please do let us know.
We also rely on help with stewarding, and bucket-shaking and various other duties during the festival weekend. If you would like to earn some free camping in exchange for a few hours helping please get in touch. Likewise if you might be able to offer some help in the lead up to the festival we would like to hear from you too!
