Festival

Many Sandwich Pubs will put on Folk music throughout the weekend, there will be street music and dancing. The Pub events will be free to enter with main events at St. Mary’s Arts Centre ticketed.

We do like to find you something different every now and then.. Scandimoot offers one of the best opportunities you will find in the UK to learn tunes and dances from Scandinavian teachers. Each year we pick exceptional music and dance teachers from Norway and Sweden to come to this small, intimate event in Yorkshire.

An exciting weekend of fiddle concerts, recitals, workshops, sessions, talks and ceilidhs. Run by the Scots Fiddle Festival Ltd, the charity that promotes and sustains traditional fiddle music in Scotland.

The Scots Fiddle Festival is three days of unforgettable concerts, daytime recitals, workshops, talks, festival clubs, ceilidhs and the Fiddle Walk. There is a programme of free events including ‘Come and try fiddle’ workshops, a ‘Come and try Gaelic’ workshop, the Open Stage, all day music sessions and stalls as well a folk church service on the Sunday morning.

Folk music. Shanty singing. Pirates. Food and drink. That should keep a lot of people happy!
