Now in its 9th year, Hartlepool has become a firm favourite in the UK folk festival calendar. Situated on the Historic Headland, the festival is filled with outdoor theatre, family activities, crafts, great street food and a vibrant atmosphere you won't find at any other folk festival. Enjoy a fabulous weekend full of dance, stories, heritage, beautiful views of the North Sea coast, and of course one of the best folk music lineups of the year.
